Can't remove linux-image-2.6.39-2-486
Posted: Wed Feb 29, 2012 3:25 pm
Hi
Should have left well enough alone but tried to clean up grub menu and remove above package thru synaptic.
I'm running fine on
thos@m1530mdx:~$ uname -a
Linux m1530mdx 3.0.0-1-486 #1 Sun Jul 24 13:43:13 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux
error message in terminal is:
I've tried all the apt-get check, clean, autoclean, autoremove etc.
Any ideas would be appreciated
Thanks
