    Edit the sources.list file by entering this command in a terminal
    Code:
    gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
    Then put a # in front in the line at the end of the file.
    deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-security restricted main multiverse universe
    It should look like # deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-security restricted main multiverse universe when you are done. Then save the file.

    Then update and upgrade again. Post any errors.

    Use whatever OS or desktop works for you. Dual boot or use VMs if you want. Backup your computer regularly, and definitely before upgrading, partitioning, or installing an OS.

    No support requests by PM please.

    Well Old_Gray_Wolf, it looks like that did the trick.
    It appears that the update and upgrade ran as expected with no errors.
    I want you to know that I am very grateful for your help and the help of everyone that responded to this post and, again, please accept my sincerest apology for the previous rant. And I meant no disrespect.

    I learned a valuable lesson here about being patient.
    Thank you again.
    Respectfully,

    Glad you have it sorted. And hey, we all have one of those days so I think we all understand your frustration ... difference is a lot of people don't have the guts to face it and go back and build some burnt bridges, so good work.

    Good luck with presenting the Ubuntu UE *bomb*!

    Thank you Bucky Ball for your understanding. That means a lot.
    I expect the presentation to go well especially now that I have a little more insight into the potential issues.
    Every time I come into this Forum with a problem, I learn something new.
    I look forward to the day when I can come into the Forum and volunteer my support to those needing help instead of coming in always looking for answers.

    Kindest Regards,

    Glad to see you sorted.

    I look forward to the day when I can come into the Forum and volunteer my support to those needing help instead of coming in always looking for answers.
    I'd suspect that you'd be able to do that now anyway - there will be people looking for help with things you've learnt to fix - just because you've not been about long does not mean you have nothing to offer others.

    Have fun.
