[Bug 1877181] Re: package initramfs-tools 0.136ubuntu6 failed to install/upgrade: installed initramfs-tools package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1

[Mikkel Kirkgaard Nielsen]

Seems plausible that this is caused by inadequate storage on /boot.

See Df.txt;
/dev/sdb2                       241965     197598      31875  87% /boot

See end of DpkgTerminalLog.txt;
