    Clearly there are some issues, i've just hit a wall with where to go, and nothing that I have tried or researched has worked. Any help would be appreciated. I have also noticed that /boot is full, however it will not allow me to uninstall older versions from it.

    Thanks for the response, I've tried autoremove but it won't work:
    Code:
    michael@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get autoremoveReading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree
    Reading state information... Done
    You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.
    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
     linux-image-extra-3.13.0-67-generic : Depends: linux-image-3.13.0-67-generic but it is not installed
     linux-image-extra-3.13.0-68-generic : Depends: linux-image-3.13.0-68-generic but it is not installed
     linux-image-generic : Depends: linux-image-3.13.0-68-generic but it is not installed
    E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.
    apt-get -f install produces the original error
    df -h produces:

    Re: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

    Looks like apt-get has not yet locked up (this usually happens). So maybe a one line command will work.

    Code:
    dpkg -l linux-* | awk '/^ii/{ print $2}' | grep -v -e `uname -r | cut -f1,2 -d"-"` | grep -e [0-9] | grep -E "(image|headers)" | xargs sudo apt-get -y purge
    Have a read before you use it.

    http://tuxtweaks.com/2010/10/remove-...h-one-command/

    If that will not work, then you can use dpkg.

    Code:
    sudo dpkg remove --purge KERNEL VERSION
    After you have removed two or three kernels -f install should work, then followed with autoremove.

    Here's a reference.
