My latest system upgrade failed because it can't upgrade the kernel:
$sudo env LANGUAGE=en_US apt-get upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
linux-signed-image-3.13.0-24-generic : Depends: linux-image-3.13.0-24-generic (= 3.13.0-24.47) but 3.13.0-24.46 is installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
When trying to install linux-image-3.13.0-24-generic manually because it can't create a backup link for the old kernel. This really doesn't surprise me, because /boot is on a fat32 filesystem ( EFI System Partition ) so it shouldn't be possible to create any links at all.
My fstab entries for boot are as follows:
UUID=0E1E-3E58 /mnt/efi vfat defaults 0 2
/mnt/efi/ubuntu /boot none bind 0 0
Here is the output of me trying to install the kernel manually:

Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
