first, thanks for the screenshot - it explains things really well.

we have been having a normal rate of installs in recent days, so the repos are up and running, they appear ok and the logs look ok, so it's all good from this side.

the url is correct from your side.

is it possible that you don't have proper networking at that stage?

you can press ctrl-alt-f2 and there should be a shell there. you can try

Code: Select all

ping f9.amahi.org
and also for reference

Code: Select all

ping yahoo.com
there could also be glitches in the repo side or the path from you to the repo, so trying again a bit later may help (though i assume you have done that already).

well i gave it a go again just now. and now it's able to add the repository. so maybe like you suggested there was a minor glitch thats been worked out one way or another on its own. thanks for the reply. :)
