Changing my netboot preseed configuration from "d-i pkgsel/upgrade select full-upgrade" to "d-i pkgsel/upgrade select none" was enough to get around this problem.
Hopefully the installation process still apply the security updates. It seems to do it later in time so it's probably why it doesn't fall into this very specific initrd.img symlink race condition case anymore. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1317602 Title: package linux-image-3.13.0-24-generic 3.13.0-24.46 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1317602/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
