Linux headers corrupt how do i fix?
Good Morning
I have a problem that after a lot of playing around I have finally worked out the following
My Linux-headers-3.0.0.20 is corrupt somehow.
Package in inconsistent state
The package 'linux-headers-3.0.0-20' is in an inconsistent state and needs to be reinstalled, but no archive can be found for it. Please reinstall the package manually or remove it from the system.
I am assuming that no archive can be found due to it being an older version and no longer supported, though I though Xubuntu 11.10 would still be supported. I did try a fully upgrade but this error prevent me from doing the upgrade.
SO
How do I achieve one of the following.
1. Fix the currpot 3.0.0.20 problem.
Get a copy of linux-header-3.0.0.20 from where and where do I replace it
2. Change my system so that it starts via the working 3.0.0.17 normally without any intervention.
Currently starting via 3.0.0.20 and fails but can be manually selected to start from the 3.0.0.17 if I interven during the start process (boot via older linux version). This get my system working perfectly fine without any issues
3. Manually delete linux-header-3.0.0.20 and then I can complete and upgrade to 12.04
4. Another even better option to fix my system?
Greatly appreciate any help
Cheers
