I have to imagine this issue is affecting many, many more people. I've tried hundreds of search strings over the past few months on google and this is the first time I ever had a proper hit. Using GoatZilla's errors (the 1-4 post above), I've had all four, but have actually made it past installation- you have to somehow remove the ubiquity-slideshow-*buntu package before installing. Even after that, though, sometimes different packages will fail to install, and the system, when it does actually work, never fully is stable. I've tried numerous different 12.10 variants (currently running xubuntu with the kubuntu packages installed). Using KDE or Gnome over Unity helps alleviate some of the issues, but, as everyone else seems to know, it won't fix them. I thought maybe it was just related to me having an ancient AMD XP2400 based system with the original 80gb SATA 1 drives, but since they don't report errors under any other circumstances EXCEPT after a hiccup or on machines running different OSes, I can kind of rule those out. As also reported, it doesn't really matter what programs are running, the errors/kp's/et cetera are truly random. I don't know what to provide that could be remotely useful, since it seems that no one is actively monitoring the situation... Things are looking desperate.
