Hello everyone,
I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 11.10 from the iso 'ubuntu-11.10-desktop-amd64.iso'. I installed this in VMWare Fusion 4.1.1 running on OSX 10.7.3. When setting up the VM, I allowed easy install to take care of creating my user and installing VMWare tools. No problems during installation, everything seems to be working great.
The problem is that apt-get will NOT update, so I can't do software updates or install any software with apt-get install. I have been searching high and low, and have found several threads covering similar issues. http://askubuntu.com/questions/82014/how-to-fix-a-ruined-package-catalog is one, http://askubuntu.com/questions/91006/update-manager-generates-404-error-while-attempting-update-will-not-update is another, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1869624 is a third
I have tried changing my software source download location to "Main Server" rather than "Server for United States", to no avail. Same errors. Tried sudo apt-get clean, sudo apt-get autoclean, have done a 'sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/*', still having the exact same problem. As I said, this is a brand new installation as of yesterday evening.
Since I know it will be needed, here is my output from a 'sudo apt-get update':

Another thing that I have noticed is when I simply browse to http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ or http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/, it appears that there are no folders whatsoever for natty, oneiric, or precise. Is something wrong with the repositories? Has VMWare Fusion done something in the auto-install that borked apt? I there something else obvious that I am missing? I have full internet access to the VM (using NAT in Fusion to provide connectivity). Any help to push me in the right direction would be GREATLY appreciated!

lsb_release -a gives the following:

No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 11.10
Release: 11.10
Codename: oneiric
Another thing that I have noticed is when I simply browse to http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ or http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/, it appears that there are no folders whatsoever for natty, oneiric, or precise. Is something wrong with the repositories? Has VMWare Fusion done something in the auto-install that borked apt? I there something else obvious that I am missing? I have full internet access to the VM (using NAT in Fusion to provide connectivity). Any help to push me in the right direction would be GREATLY appreciated!
