Title:
  package initscripts 2.88dsf-13.10ubuntu11 failed to install/upgrade:
  ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script returned
  error exit status 1

Status in “sysvinit” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Problems started when virtalbox stopped booting the oneiric kernel
  because the ahci module was missing and the root disk could not be
  mounted (no by-uuid entries in /dev/disk/).

  I then downloaded the ubuntu iso again and chrooted into the root
  partition, installed the update-manager-core and ran a do-release-
  upgrade and ended up with this bug report.

  Do you need to know anything about VM settings or is there something
  else I forgot to mention?
