I don't know. However, when reporting error message it is best to paste 
the actually messages you get into your email, rather than just 
paraphrasing what you saw. This will greatly help people in 
understanding your problem.

so, when you run

  > apt-get install ubuntu-desktop

what *exactly* do you get ?
