Ran out of disk space during upgrade from 11.10->12.04

[Daniel Hollocher]

Original summary: package linux-image-3.2.0-32-generic 3.2.0-32.51 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2

I ran out of space. I knew before hand that I was short on space, but the installer said I was ok. Crash ensued, and this bug report was requested. That's the whole of the story. I guess the estimation of how much disk space that is needed is slightly off, and maybe it is kernel install related. Anyway, I leave that speculation to you smarter folks.

   It looks like you ran out of space on the partition containing /boot.
