This bug seems to be back in Karmic since a few days. Normal reboot has

@Richard --- if you installed linux-crashdump and it turned on kexec by
default that sounds wrong. We would expect you to have to opt in to the
automatic kexec behaviour on reboot. Please file a bug on linux-
crashdump and reference this one in the description. Thanks.

Always kexecs on
I've just been bitten by this interesting feature on a current Jaunty
system.
I installed linux-crashdump, and now all my alterations to /boot/grub/menu.lst
are ignored.
I spent ages trying to discover why /proc/cmdline was an old version that
didn't exist any more in my menu.lst

Thank you - I've installed the latest jaunty-proposed update for this
package (2009-2.0.0ubuntu3.1) and rebooting works normally again, as
before the intrepid-to-jaunty upgrade.

When I have kexec-tools installed, it seems to trigger a kexec whenever
I shut down or reboot. This doesn't seem like sensible default

not intentional.
Discussed this upload with Colin Watson, he indicates there policy
violation in the handling of the configuration files which will lead to
different behaviour from dpkg and apt-get installs of the package, I
have filed a new bug for that issue, bug #368745. It was also felt
appropriate that we
