I followed the instructions and did everything to the last letter. the 
image is on the hard disk as it should be. But neither apt-get update or 
synaptic recognizes the location.
I get the following error message using apt-get :
Failed to fetch file:/ubuntu/dists/hoary/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz  
File not found

What line do I add to source.list for apt-get / synaptic to know that 
ubuntu is there

thanks
ram
