Hi, Same problem here. sources.list is overridden in upgrade process. I tried Ante's solution (quoted below), but it didn't work for me. More of the same. For the record, the error was:
Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty-updates/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.88.45 80] Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty-updates/multiverse/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.88.45 80] If anyone has further suggestions for workarounds, I'd like to hear them. For the record, I hope Tomasz's idea is implemented and works.
