error report during update-manager run on Ubuntu Hardy


I recently ran update manager and got the following error report.
Code:
linux-backports-hardy-modules depends on linux-backports-hard-modules-generic(=2.6.24.26.28); however:
    linux-backports-hard-modules-generic is not configured yet.
dpkg error processing linux-backports-hardy (--configure)
    dependency problems -- leaving unconfigured
I am running the kernel v2.6.22 as built for my EmporerLinux tablet workstation. While the newer kernel (=2.6.24-26) has been loaded during a previous update manager session, I have yet to boot this kernel for several reasons.

Could someone please explain what these messages are trying to tell me?

One of the reasons that I have not run the newer kernel lies in the fact that I do not have the corresponding initrd.img file for either the -386 or -generic build.

Thanks,
~~~ 0;-Dan

... more error messages

I tried to update or install another way -- using Synaptic.
I selected the v2.6.24-26 kernel package for "reinstall" and got this.

Code:
E: linux-image-2.6.24-26-386: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
E: linux-backports-modules-2.6.24-26-386: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
