Bug Description
I tried to upgrade from gutsy to hardy-beta (using update-manager -d and also through alternate-cd)
In both cases, it hangs in first phase(preparing to install).
The status shows "checking package manager".
Few debug info:
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.

UPDATE: This also happens to normal hardy (bug is a little old).
I get the exact same behaviour:
$ lsb_release -a
