When performing a default installation it is known, that logging in as a normal user.

So, if you have over and over the same issue, using that unusual installation
concept (re-using pre-existing home data), which is not officially supported by
the installer, you should probably try a default install, without any old-home-data 
tricks - just for a test.

If that works, you could then carefully merge your home data back into the new 
system. 


In summary, this all is not an installer issue, by the way.
