> Binary package hint: initramfs-tools
>
> When installing a kernel, /boot may become full during execution of
> post-installation script typically when update-initramfs is creating
> or updating an initrd.img file. This is resulting in kernel
> installation error. For example:
>
> Setting up initramfs-tools (0.98.8ubuntu3) ...
> update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated)
> Processing triggers for initramfs-tools ...
> update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.38-8-generic
>
> gzip: stdout: No space left on device
> E: mkinitramfs failure cpio 141 gzip 1
> update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-2.6.38-8-generic
> dpkg: error processing initramfs-tools (--configure):
> subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit
> status 1
