[Bug 1191389] Re: package linux-image-extra-3.8.0-25-generic 3.8.0-25.37 failed to install/upgrade: run-parts: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools exited with return code 1

[Michael McAndrew]

Hey there,

I think I have the same error. I am on an Dell xps13 with a hard drive
about 20% full. I was automatically directed to this bug report after a
gui upgrade reported that something (don't remember the exact words!)
had gone wrong in the update.

I then rebooted and did an 'ls -lR /boot' and a 'sudo aptitude-upgrade'

"
Errors were encountered while processing:
 linux-image-extra-3.8.0-25-generic
 linux-image-generic
 linux-generic
"

I do NOT appear to have any 'system errors' on boot like Gary.

Let me know if can provide anything more!

Michael
