troubles with apt-get

[Guest]

when updating my system somethink went wrong. an't use sptitude anymore. I tried to do the 'dpkg --configure -a'. The following happens:

hans@gnarrgnarr:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a
Richte initramfs-tools ein (0.85eubuntu20) ...
update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated)

Processing triggers for initramfs-tools ...
/usr/sbin/update-initramfs: 515: awk: Input/output error
dpkg: Unterprozess post-installation script gab den Fehlerwert 2 zurück
hans@gnarrgnarr:~$

what can i do now? i got no idea what to do and where to look, so help would be greatly appreciated!
