I upgraded online from Maverick Meerkat Netbook Remix to Natty Narwhal
with an ethernet link. i did this from the autoprompt in the Upgrade
utility. It should be noted, apart from this upgrade I had a similar
problem with the previous upgrade as well from Lucid Lynx to Maverick
when I did that with a wireless link (which I will never do again).
