Public bug reported: I tried to "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" and it stopped: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.

But it have been enough. Now I have normal and rt-kernel both. Only way to solve problem was delete or move some files manually. So I found there was backups of all the initrd.img -files. I moved them away from /boot and so I was able to run dpkg --configure -a. But are these backup files needed some day or are they there only "just to make sure." Backup files took over 27M space, older normal and rt- kernels and the updated ones, 4 files in all. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- backups in /boot, are they necessary https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/149897 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
