[Bug 478034] Re: package linux-image-2.6.28-16-generic 2.6.28-16.56 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2

I still get an error on updates as I have been for awhile.  I think the
error code is 17 now.  I updated to Karmic from updater last week.  I think
I am going to do a clean install.  My current install is still usable but I
did not have my home directory on its own partition and I think I will try
to upgrade to grub 2.0 and their are a few other things I want to do.
Better to just do a clean install for this.  thanks for your help anyway.
Karmic is an LTS release so I think it would be a good idea to reinstall on
this release.
