Public bug reported:
1) I was updating as always through Discover and this error appeared:
The Package failed to install:
Error while installing package: installed linux-headers-6.8.0-84-generic
package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1
2) After reboot, the system does not show an image after GRUB when
booting 6.8.0-84.
3) Booting with an older kernel works.
4) Attempting to update/repair from the working kernel still fails with the
same error.
Expected result:
Kernel 6.8.0-84 should install and boot normally with NVIDIA driver.
Actual result:
Installation fails, DKMS aborts, and system cannot boot into the new kernel.
