    Legacy 6.06 repositories

    I'm trying to add some software to a 6.06 install which can not be upgraded. I find my repositories no longer exist. Where might I find them?

    have you tried editting your sources something like this?
    Code:
    deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ <release name> main etc etc
    this worked for my old 8.04 install, but last time I added anything on it was last year.

    In addition to what Matt has said, you might find this link useful:

    I did a "thanks" reply yesterday, but don't see it today. Here goes again.

    Thanks! My problem was that I didn't know to google on "old releases ubuntu". That would have fixed me right up.
