Ubuntu 12.10 crashes on boot

[Calabacin]

After installing Ubuntu 12.10, I could not even boot. After fixing this with boot-repair (installed grub on all disks), I can at least see grub, but a few seconds after choosing to start Ubuntu, it just reboots.

In case it matters, my boot disk is an SSD which also has Windows 7 installed. Also, my home partition is in a GPT partitioned disk.

Cannot attach partman, since it does not exist, but here is the output for 'parted -l':

I am closing this very old bug because 12.10 is end of life and no longer supported, and the system almost certainly on longer exists to troubleshoot on.
