[Bug 1287216] Re: package linux-image-3.5.0-47-generic (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1

 

You may need to run the following:

sudo apt-get install -f
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update

Then re-install the package.

If that does not resolve your issue, please mark the bug as "Confirmed"

Bug description:
  I just upgraded my Dell Latitude D600 from Ubuntu 12.04 to Ubuntu 12.10. after the upgrade finished i receved a message that linux-image-generic 3.5.0.47.63 was downloaded but not installed. I tryed to run the update manager to install it, but it came back with an error. I tryed to install it thru the terminal with, sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic 3.5.0.47.63. It also came back with an error.
  I then tryed to upgrade to Ubuntu 13.04 to see if the error would fix it self with the upgrade. after running for awhile i receved an error message: Errors were encountered while processing:
