That's a good frirst try.

Why did it crash?

FYI, I did a dist-upgrade from Breezy to Dapper many months ago, and
there was fairly substantial breakage that I was able to recover after
perusing the forum. However, a few things were never right, so I
reinstalled 6 months ago, and I've had no problems since then other
than CUPS[YS} which is the biggest POS on the planet.
