Live CD: Reboot hangs at "machine restart" on my Dell T7400

Using Clonezilla 1.2.2-26 when selecting the (1) Reboot option from the menu, the restart hangs on my Dell T7400

Reproducible Steps:
1. boot Clonzilla Live
2. Proceed to the Clonezilla Start menu
3. select Enter Command Prompt
4. enter 1 for Reboot
5. Press enter at the remove CD prompt.

The system hangs at "machine restart".

(0) Poweroff
(1) Reboot
(2) Enter the command line prompt
(3) Start over
[2] 1

[ 422.968502 ] Restarting System.
[ 422.993177 ] machine restart

All the other options work fine, I've also seen that reboot works on a mac pro.

The same problem happens with "/sbin/reboot" and "/sbin/shutdown -r now"

    I just tried clonezilla-live-20090727-jaunty.iso.

    The (1) Reboot option didn't work. It hung at "Restarting System" (as a side note it also failed to eject the CD). "sudo /sbin/reboot" also hung at "Restarting System" (but succeeded in ejecting the CD).

    Could you please give Clonezilla live 1.2.3-1 or 20090831-karmic a try?
