[Bug 650467] [NEW] package initramfs-tools 0.92bubuntu78 [modified: usr/sbin/update-initramfs] failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Martin Ueding]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: initramfs-tools

I tried to install the currend nVidia Driver (for 9500 GT) on a computer
running 10.04 desktop on a USB stick. The "additional drivers" dialogue
gave me two drivers, one was the current and recommended one. It
downloaded the driver and completed the progress bar, then it showed a
"SystemError: installArchives() failed" message.
