Binary package hint: update-manager
Tried to update from 8,04 to 8.10 over internet. There were numerous
error messages. Then there was a message that the update manager was
trying to recover. Ubuntu was left in an unusable state. I could get a
shell prompt by using an old kernel recovery option, but the regular
version of the new kernel gave a "kernel panic". I recovered by doing a
clean install from the 8.10 cd to empty space on another disk. The
clobbered version has a functioning file system and I was able to
recover seven logs from /var/log/dist-upgrade. I will try to attach
them to the bug report.
