@seb, per discussion via IRC, here are my logs from /var/log/dist-upgrade (upgrade started last night and finally wrapped up this morning after a lot of coffee and swearing).
To answer the questions:
I started off with 'do-release-upgrade -d' last night and ended up this morning with a reboot into rescue mode and a lot of 'apt-get -f install', 'dpkg --reconfigure -a' and finally an 'apt-get dist-upgrade' (or was it a -f install again?) to get the remaining held 2400+ packages updated.
NOW I believe I'm finally updated to Bionic and running again.
Also, will asked if I had manually modified anything in /etc/apt/sources.list and the answer is no, all that was handled by the upgrader.
