Brad This has happened twice to me now. This Upgrade and the one before. I am not sure if it is exactly the same, but effectively my netbook doesn't even boot now. Doing a fresh install from USB wipes out all the downloads and language customizations that I have done as well. Is there a way that I can just fix the Upgrade without doing a fresh install from USB?
