Hmmm, you don't exactly explain what does the "Failed to reboot" title
you gave to your bug report mean.

Added as suggestion to pkgsel


Already suggested in #321109.... Unfortunately, it seems that
the grub-installer package needs some attention and bugs cleaning.

  Could someone explain exactly what this bug is about?  At first glance
it seems to ask for a feature that's already present (displaying the
current rate of download).

    Thanks,

pkgsel uses the APT::Status-Fd interface to display download and install
progress in a progress bar in the d-i UI. While aptitude actually does a
better job of displaying progress via the statusfd than apt-get (it
includes the download time estimate, which apt-get for some reason does
not), it is missing the file transfer rate.

You can reproduce this outside of d-i with a command like:

debconf-apt-progress -- aptitude -y install x-window-system
