I am having troubles trying to upgrade to potato using
apt-get.  I enter 'apt-get update' and get the following:

Fetched 445kB in 2m16s (3269B/s)                                          
Reading Package Lists... Error!
E: Dynamic MMap ran out of room
E: Dynamic MMap ran out of room
E: Error occured while processing lwm (NewVersion1)
E: Problem with MergeList
/var/state/apt/lists/http.us.debian.org_debian_dists_frozen_main_binary-i386_Packages
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or
opened.

I have already done this several times before now and even
have a /var/cache/apt/packages full of 191 megabytes of
uninstalled packages.  The 'apt-get dist-upgrade' earlier
gave up after not being able to download a package I never
requested.  All attempts to force install the rest have been
unsuccessful.  The packages that won't download are libpam
runtime and modules.  So how do I force install the other
stuff?
