Bug Description

I put the command in terminal to do the upgrade. The upgrade starts it however is interrupted. I am told to report the bug.
I do not know if anyone else reported this because I am so new to this site and haven't
located any other bug like this but I am not sure how it would be logged. Here is the info that Ubuntu says to report:

Failed to fetch http://theli.free.fr/packages/breezy/./Packages.gz 404 Not Found
Failed to fetch http://koti.mbnet.fi/~ots/ubuntu/breezy/Packages.gz 404 Not Found
Failed to fetch http://koti.mbnet.fi/~ots/ubuntu/breezy/Sources.gz 404 Not Found

This is more info on why it won't upgrade.

Thanks for your bugreport.

Could you please attach the files /var/log/dist-upgrade*.log to this bugreport please? This will help me to identify the problem.

It seems to me like the some of your repositories, namely http://theli.free.fr/packages/breezy/ and http://koti.mbnet.fi/ are no longer working. This is most likely why it stops.

Could you please try to disabled them (e.g. via System/Adminsitration/SoftwareProperties) and try again?

If it keeps going I would be interessted in your logfiles.

Thanks,
 Michael

Installation is complete. Dapper is the best.

After updating your package information, the essential package 'ubuntu-minimal' could not be located. This may be because you have no official mirrors listed in your software sources, or because of excessive load on the mirror you are using. See /etc/apt/sources.list for the current list of configured software sources.
In the case of an overloaded mirror, you may want to try the upgrade again later.
