Public bug reported:
c: has winXP e: has ubuntu 8.10
after ubuntu install, ran update manager (219 updates). Pretty soon it told me
there was a crash, which I did not write down. Subsequent attempts to run
update manager work, until there is just one update left - it always fails like
this:
E: /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-
image-2.6.27-7-generic_2.6.27-7.16_i386.deb: unable to make backup link
of `./boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27-7-generic' before installing new version
