Mostly nothing, but I did have issues once where a package changed but couldn’t be installed due to failing verification as the keyring wasn’t updated. That killed the desktop environment on boot but dropping into the console and updating the keyring specifically before trying the full update again fixed things.


The better solution is getting a sparkie to install a male socket (with protective cover) for power inlet if you’re anticipating needing a genset on any regular basis. While they’re at it get them to also install an isolating switch so you can easily avoid backfeeding power into the grid while keeping the house powered.
