The steps to reproduce:
(The same as comment #9 on bug 1066347)
1. Install precise (select 'Erase disk and install ubuntu' on the 'Installation
type' screen)
2. Finish the installation, reboot and login
3. Do another installation on the same device with NO NETWORK (select
'Something else' on the 'Installation type' screen)
4. 'Change' the existing ext-4 partition to be the root partition of the new
installation and leave the others (swap) untouched. Do not format the chaned
partition.
5. Continue the installation entering the same username/password used for the
previous installation
6. The crash can be observed at the end of the installation.
The logs are attached.
