sacolcorMy apologies if this isn't the correct forum; feel free to redirect me to the proper location.  The installer appears to have hung on me during a Feisty->Gutsy upgrade.  The last line in the terminal window is "Preconfiguring packages ...", but it's been like that for several hours.  Any ideas as to how I could run this down, and/or safely stop and restart the upgrade?  Thanks!17:49
