I'm having issues with installing these two updates:

  • linux-generic-pae
  • linux-image-generic-pae

Getting the following errors every time I try to upgrade:

Setting up linux-image-3.2.0-35-generic-pae (3.2.0-35.55) ...
Internal Error: Could not find image (/boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-35-generic-pae)

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of linux-image-generic-pae:

  Package linux-image-3.2.0-35-generic-pae is not configured yet.

No apport report written because the error message indicates its a followup error from a previous failure.
Errors were encountered while processing:

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Any help would be much appreciated!

    @vasa1 dpkg can have an exit status of 1 for a wide variety of problems; as the OP says, this is quite different. Feb 10, 2013 at 11:26

Try sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.2.0-35-generic-pae then sudo apt-get install linux-image or sudo apt-get -f install I expect would clean up for you also after that first command.
