Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Current kernel is as-of Apr 28
The problem I'm having is even doing the upgrade.

So now what I'd like to do is just upgrade everything except the kernel. But synaptic won't let me un-mark it.

New Because its already aprtially installed.
New Something to try.
You do know about "apt-get -f install" ? Then once that's sorted things out, you can apt-get remove it. :-)

At least synaptic and apt-get share the database 100%. aptitude keeps its own copy of stuff.

Wade.

Q:Is it proper to eat cheeseburgers with your fingers?
A:No, the fingers should be eaten separately.
New Well, I let it churn overnight
And it was still stuck at Found memtest86+ image: /boot/memtest86+.bin

Going to try the '-f install' route and see how that goes.

New Anything in /var/log/(message,syslog,daemon)
Pertaining to killed items?
New What the hell?

That's been repeating over and over for days. I'm guessing the external hard drive I had plugged in didn't unmount properly when I shut it down.
--

Drew
New also try...
dpkg --remove (package-name)

that shoudl remove the offeding package and then continue on with:

apt-get -f install
New Well crap
dpkg: error processing linux-image-2.6.32-22-generic (--remove):

Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should
reinstall it before attempting a removal.
--

Drew
New Well...
maunally install it and it only...

dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archive/linux-image-2.6.32-22-generic<tab for completion>

Cheers.

You might also want to fixup that USB thinger before you go much further... as that is probably being scanned during the initrd fixup and the grub config.

Which means... plug the damned thing in again.

New Dunno which did it, but it did
I turned the external drive back on and did the kernel by itself via dpkg. Finished right away. Rest of the upgrade is running now, will see how it goes.

Thanks muchly.
