Severn Beta3 bombed during upgrade

[Eric Wood]

Doing an Upgrade to RH, the system did a sudden shutdown during the
dependancy resolving phase - even though there were no obvious errors.  This
is a the last notes on virtual console 3:

......
* moving (1) to step checkdeps
* moving (1) to step  confirmupgrade
* moving (1) to step install
* moving (1) to step migratefilesystems
* moving (1) to step preinstallconfig
* moving (1) to step installpackages

I guess this is a hint to do a fresh install!  ;-)
