If and this is an "if", it is due to kubuntu-desktop installation 
errors, then you should try
"sudo apt-get install --reinstall kubuntu-desktop"

However, it may be due to a more elementary error, as you mentioned

It could be a password or username error. In that case, try logging in 
as root and see if it boots. (Take care not to do major tasks when 
logged in as root). Then create a new username/password.
