I have messed it up now. I managed to update it to 7.10, using this guide:
http://knolleary.net/2008/12/12/upgrading-the-mpc-l-from-feisty/
...which worked fine, however the next update I did crashed half way
through. The computer will still boot but gives an error message after
logging in saying 'unable to initialize HAL' and it will not connect to
the internet. I made a bootable USB using unetbootin to try and just
install 9.0.4 over the top, but it crashes saying 'kernel panic'. Is
there any way I can fix the computer? Or should I send it back to Viglen?
Thanks

Hello, I have just received a Viglen MPC-L. When I try to update the
packages it has a lot of 404 not found errors then stops. I have found
out that this is because 7.04 is not supported any more so the
repositories have gone. But I could not find out what I need to do to
update it now. Does anyone know?

Doing a quick Google search came up with this...

Looks like the repositories have moved. It looks like if you update the
sources.list then you should hopefully be able to then update to a newer
version (such as 8.04 LTS).
