Title:
  package initramfs-tools 0.98.8ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade:
  ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script returned
  error exit status 1

Status in “initramfs-tools” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: initramfs-tools

  Happened during upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04.  I suspect it has to do
  with a problem upgrading/installing the kernel (not good) b/c the boot
  partition ran out of space.  I'm still mid-upgrade as I write this, so
  I'm hoping my machine's OS didn't just get blown away.
