Just happened again. Reboot also fixes. Will let you know if / when
it fails again.

Don't know if it's related or not, but when I tried to reboot when
flash failed, got the double Ubuntu progress bar, (upper one updating,
lower one doing nothing) that I believe I've only gotten when I
clean-install Ubuntu, (i.e. haven't seen the double bar since I
flattened my laptop after the RC's to install a final, clean 8.10).
