initramfs-tools failed to upgrade for me too. doing

dpkg --configure -a

indicated no space left on /tmp

df -h indicated /tmp mounted on overflow 1m total 0 free.

I logged out, switched to a VT, logged in and did

sudo su
export TMPDIR=/var/tmp
dpkg --configure -a

which allowed the initramfs-tools and kernel upgrades to complete.
Rebooted and everything seems fine for the moment.
