[Bug 1879449] Re: package linux-image-5.4.0-31-generic 5.4.0-31.35 failed to install/upgrade: run-parts: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools exited with return code 1

[Brian Murray]

I wonder if our installation process is creating /boot partitions that
are too small for kernel upgrades. Could you provide some information
about how you installed Ubuntu? Did you use the desktop or server
installer? Did you use the guided installation process or something
else?  Thanks in advance!
