[Bug 909340] Re: package memtest86+ 1.70-3ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade:

[Raphaël Hertzog]

The underlying error is this one. It's not dpkg's fault at least. Maybe
you have some security policy that forbids this operation, or maybe it's
mounted read-only or something similar.

Unpacking replacement memtest86+ ...

dpkg: error processing

 unable to make backup link of `./boot/memtest86+.bin' before installing
