I can confirm this on a Dell latitude M65 workstation. Per the crash
message on the installer, I tried to run dpkg --configure -a and here is
the output:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a
Setting up initramfs-tools (0.85eubuntu39.1) ...

dpkg: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

My guess is that the /boot partition is too small for more than one
version of the kernel -- here is the "df" output for my machine:
