Bug description:
  Binary package hint: initramfs-tools

  I was attempting to install a plug-in for Firefox to allow Java applets to run. This error occurred after I attempted to install the Nvidia drivers but couldn't tell if the installation had proceeded using the built-in program for installing proprietary drivers. This installation is a live cd running on a thumb drive. I have around 2gb allocated for saving changes and settings.
