It looks to me like there was an issue with your network connection when trying to install Ubuntu:

Nov 29 05:14:40 xubuntu NetworkManager[1425]: <warn> nl_recvmsgs() error: (-33) Dump inconsistency detected, interrupted

I'd try using a different network interface if your system has more than one.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. It would help us a lot if you could test it on a currently supported Ubuntu version. If you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running only once:
apport-collect 1256201

and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.
