Bug description:
  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).
