update from Ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 from CD-ROM/DVD stucks

[Johannes Herzig]

Binary package hint: nautilus

When the update process stucks (laptop does not react anymore, killing X process does not work) I pushed it off the hard way by pressing the power button for 6 seconds. Then started the laptop again but starting the system update manager ("Aktualisierungsverwaltung" in german) gives a note that something is wrong with the software base. I should run a shell with "sudo apt-get install -f". Doing so produces another error which I could recover by advice.

After that Ubuntu desktop gives a note for an error report which I tried to follow. The causing source package (nautilus) was automatically figured out.

I hope that it'll help. I gave my best. :-)
