In my case ( bug #645700 ) there were over 700MB free, so presumably lzma did not run out of space.

In my case, /vmlinuz does point to a valid file, but I have no idea if this was true before the update:

~$ ls -al /vmlinuz
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 30 2010-09-17 00:28 /vmlinuz -> boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-24-generic
~$ sudo ls -al /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-24-generic
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4034976 2010-09-16 18:14 /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-24-generic
