package linux-image-2.6.32-21-generic 2.6.32-21.32 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[OK-Newbie]

I updated to 10.04 from the previous release (9.04 I believe) and ever since I get this bug. I have tried running apt-get clean, update and dist-upgrade and the upgrade creates this error over and over again.

would love to learn of a solution
