error 43 while upgrading to iOS 5?

After my phone is finished backing up for iOS 5, I get an error 43. I know it means folder not found, but I don't know how to fix it. Does anyone know how i can?

iPhone 4, iOS 4.3.3

This same solution worked for me as well (manual back up, proceed with upgrade, then restore from most recent back up). Thanks to whomever figured this out. It seems to have worked just fine but took a very long time for me (16GB iphone 4, with just about 1 GB free space on it). The "restore" part took over an hour to load everything back on -- but it all seems to be there now. We really shouldn't have to go this route -- Apple should fix this ASAP. What a pain in the butt.
