Public bug reported: run-parts: executing /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms 4.8.0-52-generic /boot/vmlinuz-4.8.0-52-generic did not progress, it used no system resources and just hang. I had this problem before with nearly every kernel update in the past.
I have to reboot, use the recovery mode, uninstall nvidia-drivers and then the update of the kernel works. After that I can reinstall nvidia graphics drivers.
