This seems to have actually occurred because I was using the Update Manager administrative app. It appears that some updates were being held back requiring a dist-upgrade and some came through as a regular upgrade even though they required some of the other (new dist) packages. The Update Manger app didn't provide an option for the dist-upgrade. The resulting incomplete and inconsistent upgrade caused the boot problem. Doing an apt-get dist-upgrade immediately after the apt-get upgrade from the command line on an Alpha 2 re-install seems to get past the problem.
