It depends if you need anything from the second disk. I did a clean install with no iLife apps and it did not ask for the second disk.
I encountered the same issue doing my re-install. Was confident it was time to put in disk 2 (why else eject disk 1) but opened the install log just to be sure.
Ever minute or so a new line would append to the log, it wasn't finding something it needed but wasn't really clear on what exactly it needed.
Put in disk 2 and she was happy again!

As someone who's done a couple of reinstalls on my MBA already... it is correct that you will NOT be prompted for Disk 2. When Disk 1 gets ejected, you should just go ahead and insert Disk 2, even if you are not prompted for it.
