Examining your DpkgTerminalLog.txt file I see the following:

Searching for GRUB installation directory ...

No GRUB directory found. To create a template run 'mkdir /boot/grub' first. To install grub, install it manually or try the 'grub-install' command. ### Warning, grub-install is used to change your MBR. ###

User postinst hook script [/sbin/update-grub] exited with value 1

dpkg : erreur de traitement de linux-image-2.6.28-13-generic (--configure) :

Have you removed/uninstalled grub?

Changed in linux (Ubuntu):
status:	New → Incomplete

Hi & thanks or your help,

not at all, grub is still here installed in the mbr and nothing seems to be
missing in /boot/grub/* ... and I'm still booting on it everyday ;o)
Actually I just made a fresh install from kubuntu 64bits cdrom then made
apt-get update && apt get dist-upgrade and that's all ...
If you need more details, please ask me ...
Regards,
Stephane
