It shouldn't hang during a kernel upgrade no matter what, even if you totally hosed the kernel completely by canceling halfway. Try this:

- Reboot the computer.
- Unplug the power from the Empeg.
- Start a 1.01 kernel upgrade (double check that it's the correct kernel, mark1 or mark2).
- When prompted, apply the power to the Empeg.

See if that fixes it.
