But, the reason I write this is that I have also been
faced up to another type of problem, namely a problem
with installation of the new system. I attach the dbg_log.tgz

Partition table entries are not in disk order

This is your problem.
Eh? Why is that a problem? My partitions are even more out of order and I have never noticed any problems resulting from it. 

My problem-free partitioning:
