Probably not, as I have exactly the same problem. Were you using CDs or
the network? I have found this error occurs with CDs, but not with the
network -- my laptop upgraded to Woody fine.
Over in debian-cd, the same issue came up. The only suggestion made was
this:

I tried that and it didn't work in my case.
Does anyone else know how to get the potato->woody upgrade to work from
CDs?

P.S. No, upgrading over the network is not an option. The box in question
lives too far away from it, unlike the box at work with the CD burner!
