Country code question

[ryy705]

Hi,
A lot of the urls in my sources.list file start with http://gb. I live in the US. Is it OK to change all the gb to us? Is it safe to assume that there are mirror us sites for all gb sites? Thanks in advance.

Backup before you edit !

Yes

Is it safe to assume that there are mirror us sites for all gb sites?

There should be.


Good place to make new sources.list:

Ubuntu sources.list generator

With this generator you can create your own custom sources.list from various available sources. It takes only two simple steps.

Step One:
- The country you live in
- The Ubuntu release you use
- The architecture of your computer
- I you want to include source repositories

Step Two:
Select repositories
- Ubuntu supported packages
- Ubuntu community supported packages
- Nonstandard repositories
