Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: upgrade-system

I'm having a hard time trying to upgrade from
breezy to dapper.  I had in the past done several
upgrades from Hoary to Breezy on 2 machines
which went all fine.  No so with official Dapper-6.06 LTS.
I will try to summarise:

- I had a breezy system, all packages up to date.
- I tried to upgrade to dapper but system crashed
  during the upgrade  (I don't have more details here)
- so I reinstalled my system from scratch from
  a hoary CD (that's all I had) with default packages
  only.
- then upgraded hoary -> breezy  (which went fine)
- then upgraded breezy -> dapper (by the way, I had
  to manually remove old package linux-2.6.5 as 
  mentionned in the release notes when upgrading from
  hoary->breezy or else upgrade was not allowed from
  graphical upgrade manager)
- upgrade went though although I saw a couple of 
  possibly severe errors such as seg fault for example
  when setting up PCMCIA (I don't have PCMCIA though)
  (I will attach dist-upgrade-term.log which contains
  this error)

When starting dapper afterwards, I had several issues:
- graphical boot up screen was truncated (I can
  see half of it horizontally, this is not blocking).  
- starting up froze the first 2 times I tried to boot
  up with a black screen. I waited several long minutes. I could not see any activity (no disc access).
- I tried to start up again, and then GDM came up (although I made no change)
- however, network access does not work.  I see
  several errors in 'kern.log '

</pre>

This PC worked fine with Hoary and Breezy. 
I will try to install Dapper from install CDs when
I receive them rather than doing an upgrade. 

I will also attach several of my logs.
