I just had the installer crash while upgrading my 11.10 to 12.10. I
suspect that this is because it ran out of room in my boot partition.
Since I set up these partitions myself (some years ago. When I
partitioned the boot partition could hold around 5 versions of the Linux
kernel. Today I have space trouble maintaining 2.) I'm matching it to
the manual partition case, but note that I did not go into the advanced
install options - I chose the upgrade radio button and trusted ubiquity
to handle things cleanly.

I fear that I shall find that this hosed my existing install, so that
I'll have to figure out recovery before regaining access to my data.

The upgrade path also prompts me to create a new user on the system,
which suggests that existing users won't be preserved.
