Bug Description
Runing installtion of Ubuntu 12.04 daily (04/21), selected to Install Alongside Windows, selected to transfer everything from Windows 7. No errors are shown, then it will reboot normally. After signing-in, no files, settings, wallpapers, bookmarks, anything has been transferred. I suspected I may have made an error of some sort, so I tried again.
I formatted the Ubuntu and Swap partition, and re-installed. Made sure I selected to select Windows 7 as the OS to transfer from. After reboot, nothing seems to be transferred, I searched in the ubuntu filesystem, but could not find any sign of transfer.
No errors are reported during or after installation.
Some further information that may be related:
-Home directory is NOT encrypted
-Windows 7 is shown as "Windows Recovery Enviroment- Windows 7" (I can't find this now, but it said something like this).
-This was the only option shown by the installer
-Yes, there is wallpaper, firefox bookmarks/history, ie bookmarks/history, documents, pictures, music in Windows 7
-Windows 7 user account has a password
-Mounting the Windows 7 partition works and files are visible and accessible in Nautilus after install, as well as Live USB.
I have tried running ubuntu-bug and apport, however they don't seem to recognize migration-
If there is a way I can provide more information, please let me know.
