Thank you for your enquiry.

Yes, I have installed the latest Ubuntu release.  No, I haven't had a 
recurrence of this issue myself.  I have learnt my lesson.

I have moved beyond the stage of 'I want to be able to dual boot Linux 
and the legacy commercial OS so I feel the need to manually repartition 
the disk' to 'I have raid + lvm and any time I want to do something 
slightly out of the ordinary I just create a new virtual machine and let 
the installer do as it will with a virtual disk on the logical volume'.

The reason I reported the issue in the first place was that other folks, 
more technically challenged than I, had complained they had been asked 
for a user id but did not have one.  They were laughed at and had sworn 
they would never touch Linux again.  I gave you enough of an explanation 
of one way this might happen that you might be able to reproduce the 
issue and fix it.  Your loss, not mine.  I won't bother you again.
