The title of that bug should be renamed to "Kernel 3.13 still broken on Radeon HD based desktops and laptops" like Sangeet is suggesting. I used option "Install new hardware support" on 12.04 LTS and I my system started rebooting because this step installed kernel 3.13. Important side-effect was scanning disc drive everytime after reboot (cancelling didn't help as drive coudn't be mounted).

Similar problem I found during installing fresh 14.04.01 - during starint X server for isntaller my computer is rebooted.

My system - Motherboard: MSI FM2-A55M-E33 (MS-7721), CPU: AMD A10-5700 APU, GPU: [AMD/ATI] Trinity [Radeon HD 7660D]

Bug is opened 4 months for 14.04 but at least user experience it upfront but I don't understand why you are introducing this LEVEL of bug in 12.04 LTS if it is already known.
