Are you trying to get to gutsy specifically or just upgrade to stable release?<br>
<br>
If you want to get to Hardy, you can do 'sudo update-manager -c' and it will take care of everything.<br>

I can run apt-get update but when I do apt-get dist-upgrade <br>
</blockquote>
it switches some of the prerequists-sources.list back to us.archive....<br>
by the way, there's a "better" way to upgrade... use do-release-upgrade<br>
<br>
It does the apt-get stuff for you and has special rules built in that<br>
helps it handle some of the odd cases where apt-get asks you a<br>
thousand questions or fights with dependencies. This is the command<br>
line equiv of<br>
<br>
update-manager --dist-upgrade<br>
