Comment 15 for bug 1002388

I can confirm that Penn's solution does work in creating the /boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-24-generic file.
The symlink is also created properly. However, with the symlink still there, it must be removed or moved first or the above solution will not work.

Steps I did to complete without errors:

$ sudo rm /initrd.img
$ sudo rm /usr/sbin/update-initramfs
$ sudo dpkg-divert --rename --remove /usr/sbin/update-initramfs
$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-3.2.0-24-generic
