Public bug reported: I ran the Natty upgrade on several systems, but, of course, it only fails on my Server (which is running desktop edition 64bit, fyi)
During the upgrade, it failed when installing "Python" which let to roughly 1100 unconfigured packages and an unbootable system. I was able to chroot into the envrionment from the livecd (mounting my separate home partition and binding /proc/ and run "dpkg --configure Python" which yielded: Setting up python (2.7.1-0ubuntu5) ...
