Well i re-downloaded the .iso, burned it at 4x, checked (validated?) it 
and K3B reported success.

So i stuffed it in the CD drive, and did the  kdesu 
"/cdrom/cdromupgrade" thing.
It hung at precisely the same place:
Generating locales...
  en_AU.UTF-8...

It broke, and a dpkg from safe mode also failed at the same point, so i 
re-installed again, updated completely, then tried what another Forum 
member said worked for him: remove locales with Adept, then do the 
upgrade, then re-install locales.

I don't doubt that it worked for him, but it didn't for me. :(
Generating locales...
  en_AU.UTF-8...

Three re-installs in 24 hours, five in 48.... i'm going for a record 
here. :)

The entire output of the attempted upgrade is here if it's of any help:

It seems that i'm fated to stick with Gutsy.

Warmest Regards,
malcolm
