[Bug 974402] Re: No user home directory created on clean install

[Joseph Lord]

I've found in the docs that for installer issues the ubiquity package
should be set.

The bug was set to invalid when it was suggested that it was a bad CD
image but the MD5 checks out and I have added more information.

Please note that this bug did not cause me a significant issue and will
probably cause me no further problem but particularly new users could be
put off if they hit this (if it is a wider issue than just me and a
freak occurrence). I'm not too bothered if you fix it but consider this
report a very small contribution to your project.

** Package changed: ubuntu => ubiquity (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu)
       Status: Invalid => New

Title:
  No user home directory created on clean install

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Did clean install from 12.04 beta CD image (downloaded 5th April from
  the UK mirror).  All OK except no home directory for initial user was
  created.

  As a result could not log in to graphical shell until a home directory
  had been created.

  /home was configured for it's own partition.  I don't know if that was
  a factor.
