No worries the PC / installation crashed totally and completely, worse 
than I've ever seen even with a Micro$oft Winblows install. I've never 
had problems with Ubuntu installs or Ubuntu upgrades, but this has been 
a nightmare. I'd rather wait a few weeks before running the upgrades on 
my other PC's. Lesson learnt - never run an upgrade on the day or within 
days of it's launch.
