Could you please provide some sample text, or should we run with the text
that was present in the Squeeze Release Notes?

This is already described in the Release Notes, see the "Important note" in section "4.1.5. Prepare a
safe environment for the upgrade": 

    You should *not* upgrade using telnet, rlogin, rsh, or from an X session
    managed by xdm, gdm or kdm etc on the machine you are upgrading. (....)
