All the attempts at good advice are naive :-) I have embedded systems in the middle of the ocean with no internet and for years they *just work* and I don't need, want, or dare upgrade. (pulse audio on newer versions screws the audio) My customer wants to add extra usb-serial ports: easy install gutsy, build- essential, qt3 and the slug chat about gutsy solves everything - NOT head /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://old-releases.ununtu.com/ubuntu gutsy main restricted universe multiverse deb http://old-releases.ununtu.com/releases gutsy main restricted universe multiverse And [snip] Err http://old-releases.ununtu.com gutsy/main Packages Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2) Get:14 http://old-releases.ununtu.com gutsy/restricted Packages bzip2: (stdin) is not a bzip2 file.
