Public bug reported: First off, the setting: Dell box, Celeron 1.0 GHZ, 256 MB ram, 8GB hard drive running Ubuntu Server 7.10 mainly running Apache to serve a few small sites.
Tried to upgrade to 8.04 by running do-release-upgrade from update- manager-core. All the packages were up-to-date 7.10 packages (I had just run apt-get update and apt-get upgrade). It downloaded all the files and ran through and installed everything until it gets to initramfs-tools. It then says: Processing triggers for initramfs-tools ... update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-16-server dpkg: subprocess post-installation script killed by signal (Interrupt) Could not install the upgrades The upgrade aborts now. Your system could be in an unusable state. A recovery will run now (dpkg --configure -a). Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the files in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ in the bugreport. E:Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2) Setting up initramfs-tools (0.85eubuntu36) ... update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated) Processing triggers for initramfs-tools ... update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-16-server ^[[13~ Could not install the upgrades The upgrade aborts now.
