To Uditha Wijethilaka Bandara:
1) Unistall official 2.6.32-33 load with Synaptic (both
"linux-headers-2.6.32-33-generic" and "linux-image-2.6.32-33-generic"
2) Restart the computer
3) Command "uname -r" in a terminal to check the version (should be
2.6.32-32)
4) Check if you can remove your NTFS drive without any problem
5) Download the 2 .deb files from Herton link (take the version
belonging to your system, i386 or AMD) :
     linux-headers-2.6.32-33-generic_2.6.32-33.71~lp811745r1_<system
version>.deb
     linux-image-2.6.32-33-generic_2.6.32-33.71~lp811745r1_<system
version>.deb
6) Double click on the first downloaded file and follow instructions (it
should say a most recent official file exists: skip this)
7) Same thing with second file
8) Restart the computer
9) Check the version (see step 4)
10) Check the NTFS drive removal again
