[Bug 1300875] Re: URL: http//paste.ubuntu.com/7190165/ . I tried many things a fixed the partitions etc but there is always an error.

Guys wait a minute. I tried to install ubuntu once again and what appeared was an error,that is, "the ext4 file system creation in partition #5 of SCSI 1 (0,0,0) sdas failed" witch means that my /root ("/") partition or swap area is not right! I followed some instructions from another person in ubuntu site I think,   and I putted it in 15000mb (root partition, which must begin from at least 3gb and at most 15000mb as I informed) and in 4096mb the swap area but I didn't know that this partition indicates MBs equals to RAM (my RAM is 1gb)  so maybe I have to check it again! Is there someone who can navigate me if I am wrong with the partitions!??? I put the partitions as follows: 
1) I put a "/boot" partition of 250GB at ext4
2)next a "/" (root) partition of 15000 at ext4
3) a swap area of 4096mb with no ext4 file system 
4) and at last a /home partition, the rest of my free space at ext4. 
I think I have to put at swap area at least 1gb which equals to my RAM, and maybe I have to change the root partition in less Mbs.

What is your opinion???  I am really confused.

Bug description:
  I have a netbook Sony Vaio VPCW12J1E 
  First there were Windows 7 starter as an  operating system in my netbook.
  After (approximatelly) 5 years i've been forced to format it, so i decided that i want Linux as an operating 
  system for my netbook.
  I made a bootable Usb -flash and i tried to install Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS (32b utilities) but there were some errors.
  First there were an error of "the ext4 file system creation in partition #1 of scsi1 failed, so i chose to manually install this os.
  I made the partitions (/boot,/root,/swap,/home) and i tried to install it again.
  And it started coppying files, while an error occured again that told me that has to do with my hard disk or with the tempreture of my pc. I tried also to reinstall grub onto my MBR but there was also an error http//paste.ubuntu.com/7190165/ . What else am i supposed to do.
