Public bug reported: 1) Source package: linux-image-2.6.24-12-386
2) Release of Ubuntu: Description: Ubuntu hardy (development branch) Release: 8.04 3) Version of the package: linux-image-2.6.24-12-386: Instalados: 2.6.24-12.22 Candidato: 2.6.24-12.22 Tabla de versión: *** 2.6.24-12.22 0 500 http://ve.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 4) This is a problem I encountered while upgrading my Gutsy 7.10 to Hardy 8.04. I found the solution on http://gazambuja.ideas3.com/ (Gracias, Gustavo!), but I thought it would be good to have here, and in English. Upgrading works fine, downloads everything and gives the following error while trying to configure the new linux-image. 5) This is the output I got: Running postinst hook script /sbin/update-grub. [: 25: ==: unexpected operator exec: 25: -a: not found User postinst hook script [/sbin/update-grub] exited with value 2 dpkg: error al procesar linux-image-2.6.24-12-386 (--configure) Following that error, the rest of the installation stops because of unmet dependencies (logically). I have an nVidia 6200 Graphics card, and the drivers would not load without first fixing that. 6) This is how I solved it: We have to modify the scrip file /sbin/update-grub. In a terminal, type: gksu gedit /sbin/update-grub Look up the first line, that begins with: #!/bin/sh and change that to: #!/bin/bash Save the changes and re-run your installation. Optionally use: sudo apt- get -f install , or something similar.
