I've tried a lot and can't get this working. I think I interrupted an install and it just screwed it all up. I've googled and tried various fixes.



EDIT (After cleaning my /boot folder) :

A good try to ensure that you system is in a good shape and not has problems with aborted installation is to invoke



  dpkg --configure -a 


Ensure that the package list are updated and no problem is shown on:



 apt-get update


Optional you can remove all old data before the update with:



 find /var/lib/apt/lists -type f  |xargs rm -f >/dev/null 


Next step to resolve the problem is to remove the linux-server package for a while.
This can be done because it has no real content and only introduce a dependency:




This package will always depend on the latest complete Linux kernel available
for Server Equipment.




 dpkg --remove linux-server


After this step check that all current dependencies are installed:



apt-get install -f


If everything is o.k. you can now install linux-server again:



apt-get install linux-server


Postscriptum



linux-server is deprecated in 12.04. Also for server equipment the generic kernel is used. See apt-cache show linux-image-server




Package: linux-image-server...



Section: metapackages



....



Depends: linux-image-3.2.0-23-generic, linux-firmware
