  Continue running under SSH? 
  This session appears to be running under ssh. It is not recommended 
  to perform a upgrade over ssh currently because in case of failure it 
  is harder to recover. 
  If you continue, an additional ssh daemon will be started at port '9004'. 
  Do you want to continue? 
  Continue [yN] y

  Starting additional sshd 
  To make recovery in case of failure easier, an additional sshd will 
  be started on port '9004'. If anything goes wrong with the running 
  ssh you can still connect to the additional one.

  Do you want to start the upgrade?

  3 packages are going to be removed. 65 new packages are going to be 
  installed. 313 packages are going to be upgraded. 

  You have to download a total of 168M. This download will take about 
  21 minutes with a 1Mbit DSL connection and about 6 hours with a 56k 
  modem. 

  Fetching and installing the upgrade can take several hours. Once the 
  download has finished, the process cannot be cancelled.
