package flash-kernel 3.98ubuntu12 failed to install/upgrade: »installiertes flash-kernel-Skript des Paketes post-installation«-Unterprozess gab den Fehlerwert 1 zurück

error occurred during distro upgrade on a raspberry pi nextcloud box.
I think the problem consists in a firmware partition on the system, that is too small to keep all files and backup files during the update. I had to manually delete these files already several times in order to make installation possible.
