Imagine my surprise when I pulled a headless debootstrap chroot upgrade of a squeeze debian box that did not come up after rebooting. I had to order a remote KMS session to figure out what went wrong: debian did not include the pretty common realtek-firmware and I was not able to apt-get it without a network interface. Luckily I was able to use it from a the previous installation.
