[Ramnarayan.K]

Hi

universe

and the files Packages.gz

/media/disk-1/ubuntu/dvd710_1/dists/gutsy/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz
/media/disk-1/ubuntu/dvd710_1/dists/gutsy/multiverse/binary-i386/Packages.gz

ok will try this, tried to rectify the line to point till gutsy but i guess
means 3 separate lines in sources.list

the error i get is
top:~$ sudo apt-get update
E: Malformed line 4 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist)

the top 5 -6 lines of my sources.list looks like
# adding 7.10 material transferred from dvd to usb disk
# deb file:///media/disk-1/ubuntu/dvd710_1/ubuntu/gutsy/ main multiverse
universe

deb
file://media/disk-1/ubuntu/dvd710_1/dists/gutsy/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz

deb
file:///media/disk-1/ubuntu/dvd710_1/dists/gutsy/multiverse/binary-i386/Packages.gz
deb
file:///media/disk-1/ubuntu/dvd710_1/dists/gutsy/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz

so what now ???

thanks
ram
