Bug Description
Ubuntu 13.04 amd64 and i386
I found this on all 3 computers in both versions.
Download the iso of 13.04 desktop amd64/i386
Build a usb key with startup media writer
Boot the computer with it, forward to gparted
Select own configuration
Set existing /home to btrfs and _no_ format, check the checkmark to be _not_ set
Go forward with the installation, reboot and tata the /home was formatted and is empty. This is a weapon of mass destruction for all people who forgot to backup before the ugrade.
