Comment preceding asked about the UUID on the swap partition. I use the same swap for all three Ubuntu's. Looking in /etc/fstab on each, the swap UUID came out the same for the three installs; I wasn't paying that close attention, but I'd conclude format didn't change the UUID for the swap partition. After some activity like downloading updates the swap does show "Used". Next install I'll look a bit more closely at the swap UUID.
Trying several Linux distro's and levels of Ubuntu, sometimes they don't work very well at all on one or another of our computers. Sure saves a lot of grief having a backup Ubuntu so the computer isn't dead altogether. Now it can be messy, for example Tribe 4 blew up partway thru install but after botching Grub so I had to use CD Live to re-install Grub, but as soon as that was fixed my other partition was running fine. How do we get Install to consider some means where the boot of the existing system doesn't always fail? The current Ubuntu Tribe 6 boot message after the fsck fail says a maintenance shell is being started, use Control-D to resume. That doesn't work. "Exit" does. Is this a new bug for launchpad?
