[Bug 357939] Re: package openssh-server 1:5.1p1-5ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 2

[Skye]

Hi, I've since replaced the faulty hardware that was causing the  
crashing issue so I'm not sure, but at the time it seemed to be  
repeatable with a clean install of the OS and pulled the power from  
the PSU in order to mimic a hardware failure while installing openssh..

Thanks for contacting me, please email me if you have any other  
questions :)
