[Bug 993147] Re: package linux-image-3.2.0-24-generic 3.2.0-24.38 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2

This error indicates that you have manually removed the grub2 package in
favor of grub, without configuring it for use as your bootloader.

Start-Date: 2012-05-01  07:16:50
Commandline: apt-get install grub
Install: grub:amd64 (0.97-29ubuntu66)
Remove: grub-pc:amd64 (1.99-21ubuntu3), grub-gfxpayload-lists:amd64 (0.6), grub2-common:amd64 (1.99-21ubuntu3)
End-Date: 2012-05-01  07:17:03

This is a configuration error, not a bug in Ubuntu.  You either need to
configure grub as your bootloader after installing, or preferably,
reinstall grub2 using the following command:

  sudo apt-get install grub-pc
