Could you be more specific and post the whole error message?

Just remove and re-install it:
  sudo dpkg -P linux-image-2.6.31-1-multimedia-amd64
  sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.31-1-multimedia-amd64

I guess the installation fails to create an initrd image.

If the re-install above also fails with status 2 again, please try if
`sudo update-initramfs -k2.6.31-1-multimedia-amd64 -c`
works. If it does, also run `sudo update-grup` and reboot.

<notes>
initramfs creation could fail because of various reasons:
 - dangling sym-links in /etc/mod*/
 - missing package 'initramfs-tools'
 - disk-full of /boot/ partition
 - can't find kernel-modules
 - ...
