I guess you'll have to make more space there, and check whether the partition is too small. I'm closing this, because this is not a dpkg bug, dpkg is just reporting that the linux packages failed to get removed while apt requested for the new kernel version to get configured. If you feel this is really a bug, then you could reopen, but then please reassign it to some other package (but I'm not entirely sure which, given that I think this is not a bug :). Thanks, Guillem
