+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Feel free to augment them with better info as needed.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I now have a functioning system, but not without some jiggery-pokery
+</I>&gt;<i> :-) The good news, though, is that I can almost certainly point to
+</I>&gt;<i> the problem and solution.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Normally I update my systems almost daily, but for reasons not
+</I>&gt;<i> relevant here, the netbook hasn't been switched on for about a week,
+</I>&gt;<i> so there were a number of updates waiting.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I started with the full update, which failed, part-way through, as
+</I>&gt;<i> expected. What I didn't realise, though, was that it had failed
+</I>&gt;<i> before updating the kernel (and, as it happens, half way through
+</I>&gt;<i> updating KDE which became unusable).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Basically I followed the hints you gave Charles, and finally got
+</I>&gt;<i> things running again.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I would suggest, then, that you make &quot;update your kernel and reboot&quot;
+</I>&gt;<i> the very first instruction, before updating everything else.
+</I>&gt;<i> Undoubtedly there will be others who, for whatever reason, don't have
+</I>&gt;<i> the absolute latest kernel, and don't realise that an update is needed.
+</I>
+I have updated the command in the wiki to be:
+urpmi --auto-update --skip '/filesystem|ncurses/'
+(as I have pointed earlier in this thread)
+
+This will install a lot more packages (including kernel), before the
+/usr move.
