need to restart twice

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

I have an iBook G4 12" 1.2 GHz

512 MB RAM, 30 GB Hard Drive.

I just wiped the hard drive and did a system install of 10.5 from a retail disk.

Quite often, upon restarting the machine I will get the flashing question mark.

This is always cured by forcing the computer to shut down by holding down the power key and then restarting the machine.

What are some reasons that this laptop sometimes needs to be restarted twice to get it to boot?

Thanks
