[Bug 1027737] [NEW] installation crash after log/sign-in on / formatted partition

After installing Ubuntu 12.04 ( / and /home partitions created during
install) using the /home I went back to install on / partition and of
course no / or / home so I put /home back on where I installed OS and
reformatted / and installed to the point where I was (who knows where
the system install was) entering name and password.  Kerplunk and here I
am.  The first install did not have a list of "media", etc. in the
"Finder" (the first icon on desktop) so all I had was the first line of
recent and could not know what I have installed (packages) if it did not
have an icon.  I do not know if they are related but that was why I was
installing again on the second partition.  I decided to keep the "files"
it said I no longer needed (after first install finished) so I could try
and someday have OpenOffice, maybe, and that may be why I am stuck with
no list (menu) of packages and writing my first bug report.  oh, yeah, I
have successfully installed 12.04 on this computer before and that is
how I saw the OpenOffice files being removed.  But these two installs
and the one before these two, also today, (it kept popping up "system
problem" or something like that) were different somehow though I do not
know how and I do not know how to attach the files /var/log/syslog and
/var/log/partman (it was during install.)  My computer is a 2009 Compaq
CQ 5700F with AMD Athlon II 170u processor and AMD 3000 graphics card
(256K) and 2 GB RAM.  I had Kubuntu on it and it was fast (rekong) and
efficient and effective.  It was running awesome!  I also did the "ufw
enable" and "ufw logging on" thru the terminal and maybe that is what
broke these installs.
