Trunk version of linux-image ISSUE
I', sent this previously but so far no reply. Can anyone tell me how to
get rid of this issue. I did an update & the trunk version of
linux-image was installed as the upgraded version. A few weeks later I
tried to install the newer regular version & after a few attempts it
finally installed & grub configured it. However it is not properly
configured according to the installer as it keeps trying to configure
the non-trunk version every time I do an update. Now I've been able to
select the non-trunk version & have my system running it, even though
it's not properly configured. I tried to then remove the trunk ver. &
this is the error message I get.
