Go to http://atrpms.net/dist/fc1/rpm/ (assuming you're running Fedora 
Core 1) and download all the binary packages, then "rpm -Uvh 
*rpm*.rpm". Then go to http://atrpms.net/dist/fc1/apt/ and download all 
the binary packages there, "rpm -Uvh *apt*.rpm", then apt-get update 
and proceed where you left off. Or something along those lines. Not 
sure if there are some other deps to take care of or any other gotchas, 
I haven't upgraded yet. Though I think this is only a problem for new 
installs...
