[Bug 1173020] Re: upgrade from kubuntu 12.10 to 13.04. error with linux-image-extra-3.8.0-19-generic

[Bruce Miller]

Interestingly, when this error message first appeared, chromium
complained that it could not be run as root unless I set up a new
profile.

But at the same time, a launchpad log-in page opened in Firefox and it
is from there that I am commenting on this bug report.

I am going to try living dangerously, and to delete manually
/boot/initrd.img-3.8.0-19-generic, sincce it appears to be generated
frequently by post-installation scripts.
