Woody/SS5 upgrade problem

[Neil Gruending]

I tried upgrading my SS5 from the last potato release to woody last night and 
things didn't go so well.  Using apt-get, I did a update and then a
dist-upgrade.  Halfway through the upgrade, dpkg died with a broken pipe.  I
also saw some warnings about unimplemented SPARC system calls associated with
inetd and ssh.  Anyways, I rebooted the system and tried over and now named 
doesn't work - it complains about the SPARC system calls.  I had
everything working fine with potato.  Since named isn't resolving, how can I
finish upgrading my system, or do I need to burn a CD and start over?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

My resolve.conf lists my firewall (SS2+Solaris) as my DNS server.  The SS5 
resolved everything when I started the upgrade.  I tried pinging the firewall 
by name which didn't work, but the IP address did.  From past experience the
only time when I can't ping my firewall by name I can't ping it by IP either.
To be 100% sure, I'll try again.

Do I need to worry about the unimplemented SPARC system calls?  They sound 
ominous.

 a working DNS server in your resolv.conf?  You don't need to run named
 to resolve DNS names.
