Hi Leann,

The problem came when I was upgrading xubuntu 7.10 to 8.04. The system crashed while upgrading and I had to reboot it in safe terminal mode.
I had to solve manually using dpkg and system booted fine at that time but still reported it had problems upgrading image and kernel.
Then I started again apt-get upgrade with apt-get version:
-------------------------------------------------------------
apt 0.7.9ubuntu17 for i386 compiled on Apr 22 2008 15:19:47
Supported modules:
*Ver: Standard .deb
*Pkg: Debian dpkg interface (Priority 30)
 S.L: 'deb' Standard Debian binary tree
 S.L: 'deb-src' Standard Debian source tree
 Idx: Debian Source Index
 Idx: Debian Package Index
 Idx: Debian Translation Index
 Idx: Debian dpkg status file
-------------------------------------------------------------
and the upgrade of kernel and image worked fine.
At this time I am working with kernel 2.6.24-19-generic.
