See ealier posts for more detail. But....
Last night I did the Kernel firat and rebooted.
Then tried to do it in one hit which faild with the error you mentioned.
I then restarted and did the update a few at a time, which although slower 
worked fine.
I gather there are other mirror site that might not be getting hit so hard.
