Rodolfos way works for me, thank you very much. Little howto:
cd /var/cache/apt/archives
sudo rm *
sudo apt-get install libc
# it'll fetch the debs and then exit with the error message
sudo dpkg --force-depends --install libc6_2.8\~20080505-0ubuntu9_i386.deb 
findutils_4.4.0-2ubuntu3_i386.deb
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Shirish Agarwal try 'mount | grep -i nfs', if you get an output you have
a nfs mount which is the problem. Or you have mounted some filesystem
read-only, try to remount it rw
