this is not a help request; i was able to fix the problem. but does anyone know why i was able to remove the kernel i was running just with the small warning
WARN: Proceeding with removing running kernel image.
but no prompt to confirm that? i seem to remember that i had been prompted on older ubuntu versions when i tried to do just that.
here is what i did: i tried to remove the old kernels i had installed with
$ sudo apt-get remove --purge linux-image-3.2.0-2*
hoping that the linux-image-3.2.0-30-generic linux-image-3.2.0-31-generic linux-image-3.2.0-32-generic kernels would be kept. i didn't take a close look at what would all be removed and removed ALL THE KERNELS of my system that way (fortunately i noticed this right afterwards and reinstalled the latest kernel).
and here's the log (notice the last line: there is no kernel in /boot):
surfer@hiro:~$ sudo apt-get remove --purge linux-image-3.2.0-2*
