Hello,

the OTA update never worked for me so far, so I always did "phablet-flash 
cdimage-touch" instead. But strangely I get plenty of updated packages on 
"apt-get upgrade" immediately after upgrading anyway.

When I first screwed my device I managed to recover it with the manual 
installation routine described in the wiki. phablet-flash refused to work in 
that state, but at least it didn't make things worse. YMMV, so if you want to 
be sure, wait for the pros to answer ;). I'm just a beginner on these matters.

Regards,
Fabian
