Use --download-only and go to sleep=2E That way it won't start the actual
installs=2E

Then, once the downloads are complete rerun the dist-upgrade without the
--downl-load only=2E

If you wake up and the download isn't done, use ^c to cancel it and then
start it again the next night ( or break when you don't need the bandwidth
)=2E
