Reason install-process failed: /dev/sda1 mounted on /boot had to little room for the new files. (I have a separate partition for /boot)
Solved by: 1. free some disk space by removing old images. 2. booted via 'submenu "Previous Linux versions"' into old version. 3. at this point (I believe?!) the install-process finished. 4. rebooted (without further problems). Thank you for your attention. Sorry for the noise. If there is a need, I can still upload a new gzip. (This was my first report. I do not know what status I should change this report into.) Additional info 1: To my knowledge there is no check on available disk space for /boot. After discovering the reason of the failed installation I remembered that it had happened to me before. Additional info 2: After upgrading to 11.04, I was (apparently) able to use the computer normally. Than digiKam hung. I had to do a 'hard reset'. Than I was no longer able to boot (other than 'submenu "Previous Linux versions"'). Even the "(recovery mode)" failed: When the recovery-menu appeared the keyboard was dead. After a approximately 10 sec. the screen went blue and I had to 'hard reset' again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/773329 Title: Upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04: "Could not install 'initramfs-tools'" -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
