thanks.

mark

the problem sources.list file still contains references repositories used when gutsy "live".

make backup of sources.list file, , replace contents of eol repositories:

code:
## eol upgrade sources.list  # required  deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty main restricted universe multiverse  deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty-updates main restricted universe multiverse  deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty-security main restricted universe multiverse    # optional  #deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty-backports main restricted universe multiverse
it's not case of adding end of existing sources.list, replacing it.

hope helps
