This error mean, that you have no Diskspace left to write the file. Before preceeding "apt-get update" make a: rm -i /var/lib/apt/lists/* which will remove the old stuff. Add the following line to your /etc/apt/sources.list ____ ( '/etc/apt/sources.list' ) _____________________________________ / | # deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian woody main | # deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian-security woody/updates main | # deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian-non-US woody non-US/main | # deb-src ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian woody main | # deb-src ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian-security woody/updates main | # deb-src ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian-non-US woody non-US/main | | deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian sarge main | deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian-security sarge/updates main | deb ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian-non-US sarge non-US/main | deb-src ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian sarge main | deb-src ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian-non-US sarge non-US/main \______________________________________________________________________ and comment out (or erase) all other entries. Because the package list of SARGE is much bigger as in WOODY you need to create the file ____ ( '/etc/apt/apt.conf' ) _________________________________________ / | APT::Cache-Limit "141943904"; | Aptitude::Delete-Unused; \______________________________________________________________________ Now an "apt-get update" will work.
