Bug Description
Precise OEM encrypted home: 20120418
On a 1GB system, if the end user selects 'encrypt home' during setup, swap is wiped then turned off. So when the user login for the first time after end user setup, the system runs without swap which leads to 'out of memory' errors
e.g
$ ubuntu-bug ubiquity
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/
app.run_argv()
File "/usr/lib/
return self.run_
File "/usr/lib/

if os.fork() > 0:
