Bug Description
Henrik Omma correctly points out that we should not claim the install is done
after the base is complete. Rather, we should say something like "The first part
of the installation process is complete. Your computer will now reboot, and then
ask you a few remaining questions to complete the installation process."
Alternatively, if we know the CD ejection worked, we could simply go ahead and
reboot.

Fixed in prebaseconfig 0.69ubuntu2. I've gone for:
_Description: First stage of installation complete
The first stage of the installation process is complete. Your computer
will now reboot, ask you a few remaining questions, and install more
packages. Make sure to remove the installation media (CD-ROM,
floppies), so that your system boots from the disk to which Ubuntu was
installed.
Note that this fuzzies all translations, but that can't be helped.
I think it's good to have that question there even if the CD ejection worked;
there are quite a few cases where people want to keep an eye on the first reboot
to make sure it works properly, and the message has warm-fuzzies value (the
computer isn't just rebooting randomly, things are going well).
