Redo "apt-get dist-upgrade", it will attempt to restart the unfinished downloads at the point where they broke off. Repeat until all are complete. But really, upgrading your dist should be done with dselect. You can still do that. Just use "install" from its main menu to perform the above, after you've checked the select screen. Cheers, Joost
