Hi all,

Could anyone help me with this update problem, please?
In the command line, I typed "sudo apt-get update" and the following was encountered.

W: Failed to fetch gzip:/var/lib/apt/lists/partial/id.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_natty-updates_universe_source_Sources Hash Sum mismatch

Funny thing is, this has not occurred before.

Please help.

Thank you.

regards,
Cornelius:confused:

Thanks garvinrick4,..however, I have encountered another error after entering those commands.

Any ideas?

W: Failed to fetch http://id.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/natty-updates/universe/source/Sources 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.88.31 80]

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
find the offending line. And put a # (comment sign) in front of that line and hit save.

#Below is the offending line.
http://id.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/...source/Sources (http://id.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/...source/Sources)

Then:


sudo apt-get update
