Hello, Mark. I don't know if this is your problem, but it's worth a try. I have had fits in Squeeze due to the udisks daemon. I'll mount a CD-ROM or floppy disk, and udisks will immediately unmount it. Or vice versa. I recommend that you shutdown and reboot, DO NOT LOGIN TO GNOME, switch to a text console via Ctrl+Alt+F1, login on the text console as root, and with luck, that pesky udisks daemon will not be running. Then try your upgrade. Maybe that's what you did, and if so, then I'm barking up the wrong tree. But you don't want that pesky udisks daemon running while doing CD mounts and umounts. -- .''`.
