I'm not completely certain my bug is the same, but it is close enough not to file a separate bug report. I have Kubuntu 8.04 and tried to upgrade to 8.10 over the Net. Following the instructions at http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading for Kubuntu, I ran the command kdesu "adept_manager --dist-upgrade-devel" and followed the prompts. The process continued successfully through the "preparing to upgrade" step, and then almost at the end of the "setting new software channels" it crashed. An image of the Distribution Upgrade window and popup error window are attached. The text of the error message is as follows:
Error during update A problem occurred during the update. This is usually some sort of network problem, please check your connection and retry. W:Failed to fetch cdrom:[Kubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon_ - Release i386 (20071016.1)]/dists/gutsy/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz Please use apt-cdrom to make this CD-ROM recognized by APT. apt-get update cannot be used to add new CD-ROMs , W:Failed to fetch cdrom:[Kubuntu 7.10 _Gutsy Gibbon_ - Release i386 (20071016.1)]/dists/gutsy/restricted/binary-i386/Packages.gz Please use apt-cdrom to make this CD-ROM recognized by APT. apt-get update cannot be used to add new CD-ROMs , W:Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid-proposed/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2 Hash Sum mismatch , W:Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid-proposed/universe/source/Sources.bz2 Hash Sum mismatch , W:Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid-proposed/main/source/Sources.bz2 Hash Sum mismatch , E:Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead. I did this three times, and three times the same error message appeared. ** Attachment added: "screen shot showing the error message" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/19105987/error804to810.png -- When upgrading from Kubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 this crash happened https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/291273 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
