Public bug reported:
Hi,
I'm upgrading from to the latest Kubuntu release and the installer
prompted me to raise a bug report when it got to configuring the linux-
image package.
I know what's happend - I've only got a ~100Mb boot partition and I've
got a couple of kernel images installed already so there just isn't
space to install the new image.
Further information requested:
1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System ->
About Ubuntu
Ubuntu 13.04 (upgrading from latest 12.10)
2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or
by checking in Software Center
linux-image-3.8.0-19-generic
3) What you expected to happen
Expected installer to check the required disk space before beginnning the
upgrade process and refuse to install or for the package installation to fail
with a less serious message. Would be even nicer if the upgrader offered to
resize the boot partition to be a bit larger or if the kernel-image package
didn't keep so many old versions of itself installed
4) What happened instead
At the moment I get a message saying something like "package failed to install,
please consider raising a bug report" -- I can't see the exact message as I'm
half way through the upgrade and the KDE window manager seems to have
disapeared...
