Title:
  Kernel panick after installing latest kernels

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Whenever I install a new kernel, it will fail to boot. I tried
  reinstalling the 3.19 kernel with

  sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-3.19.0-49-generic

  This produced the following output:

  Reading package lists... Done
  Building dependency tree       
  Reading state information... Done
  The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required:
    libx265-59
  Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove it.
  0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 1 reinstalled, 0 to remove and 0 not to upgrade.
  Need to get 0 B/16.8 MB of archives.
  After this operation, 0 B of additional disk space will be used.

  After a while I tried installing the 4.2 kernel and go the same
  result. I had posted this on Ask Ubuntu orinally and was pointed here.
  My original post is at:
  https://askubuntu.com/questions/732248/14-04-latest-3-19-kernel-
  causes-kernel-panick-3-19-0-49-generic/732613#732613

  I didn't use the  ubuntu-bug linux command because that would report
  on my existing working kernel rather than the new one. For the time
  being I just have to manually select older kernels.
