--- Comment #1 from Ricardo Fraile <rfraile at rfraile.eu> ---
Hi,

I can confirm this behaviour. Trying to upgrade from 11.2-RELEASE to
12.0-RELEASE takes around 9 hours on a system with a SD card as disk and a poor
network 3G link.

If the network link have issues when the upgrade is in "Fetching xxx patchs",
the whole process of upgrade crash and, at that point, it have been started up
around 6 hours ago. Starting up it again begins at the beggining, it doesn't
have any swich to start when it fails.

The solution recomended by Vermaden looks reasonable.

Thanks,
