As a newcomer to linux, I am trying to install Kubuntu 6.06 LTS onto my system. (dual boot-win XP ).
My system is an Epox 8KDA3J motherboard with Nforce 3 250gb chipset, amd 64 3000+ proc, 1Gb ram. broadband connection.
The install goes normally until the installation of apt manager. When trying to get updates it sits at 1% with nothing happening, before producing an error message that it cannot reach update servers. Installation then proceeds to the end. When running the system I can use Konqueror to browse the internet with no problem. I can also browse my home network with no problem. However Adept will not get any updates. Using a Konsole and using “sudo apt-get update” and using my password produces the following line “0% [connecting to kubuntu.org (1.0.0.00)]”
If anyone can shed some light on this it would be much appreciated.
I have tried installing other Linux systems (ubuntu, pclinux, mandriva,) with the same results.
Thanks in advance

This is a part copy of the installation file for Adept. Removing the “#” from the archive lines makes no difference to the result.
