Re: Interesting apt problem during update



Unfortunately this didn't solve my problem.  I tried many difference
options from the apt man pages, but kept getting a libc6 (I think)
error.  This is provided by apt, which can't be upgraded.  I couldn't
install a 2.6 kernel without this.

My uname shows that i'm running Etch, but it's broken :-(
