More information: when I ran "dpkg --configure -a", the initrd build stopped due to lack of space in /boot. I have kernel debug packages (/boot/vmlinux-debug-2.6.24-16-generic) installed. As that file occupied ~60 MB of a 100MB partition....
Workaround: I moved the vmlinux* package to /, reran the dpkg command. The initrd built successfully. So a check on the available space in /boot might be a good idea.
