Public bug reported:

I had Ubuntu 14.04 on my system with "/" and "/home" mounted on
different partitions of the same disk. I tried to upgrade to Ubuntu
16.04 and the system became unbootable (kernel panic at start up). The I
tried to install from a usb live disk. The installation lets me choose
the same partitions as "/" and "/home" and it gets past the definition
of the user and machine. After a while it crashes without explanation.
The first time I tried without reformatting the partitions, the second
with formatting but nothing changed (besides all data being gone under
/home, but I had a backup).

I trust the bug reporting system is going to attach all necessary extra 
information.
