Two things come to mind...  First, you can do the early alpha testing 
method of just reseting your repos to Intrepid.  Or, you can get an 
Intrepid alt-install and run the upgrade script on the CD.

Either way, tar up / to an external drive to revert back to partially 
broken.  As long as you don't reformat the partitions, you will not have 
any UUID problems to worry about.
