Asked by Neil

HI all
I can seems that I cannot update linux-image-2.6.32-24-generic
It downloads and tries to install but I get this message

E: linux-image-2.6.32-24-generic: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 127
E: linux-image-generic: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
E: linux-generic: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

So I guess that means my kernel is not updating?

any ideas how to fix please
Thanks
Neil

Yes, your kernel is not updated.
You can try to go Synaptic, uninstall package "*linux-image-2.6.32-24-generic*" and install it again.
Do you have software which modifies kernel, like virtual machine ?
