Public bug reported:

"An unresolvable problem occurred while initialising the package
information.

Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include
the following error message:

'E:Read error - read (5 Input/output error), E:The package lists or
status file could not be parsed or opened"

this error stops the installation of updates.
I have tried "apt-get install apt"  from the terminal and get the same error.
I am fairly new to the system but reasonably proficient at following 
instructions.

Your suggestions would be appreciated.

Xubuntu on AMD 500MHz, 256 M memory.
