I installed 4.5 OCE yesterday, and added the extra "etch"repositories, mentioned at this thread: http://forums.xandros.com/viewtopic.php?p=213699&highlight=#213699 but kept getting error messages. I wonder if these Debian repositories were down at the time?

I added these:

deb http://xnv45.xandros.com/4.5oc/pkg/ oc4.5-xn main contrib non-free
deb http://xnv45unsup.xandros.com/4.5oc/upkg/ etch main contrib non-free

deb http://xnv45.xandros.com/4.5oc/pkg/ oc4.5-xn main contrib non-free
deb http://xnv45unsup.xandros.com/4.5oc/upkg/ etch main contrib non-free

I kept getting messages saying "couldn't fetch" something or other, so the repos were ignored.

Try again - without duplicate sources. It might help.

The second set of repos should have been:

# deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main contrib non-free
# deb-src http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main contrib non-free

Enabled these repositories and made some testing - without problems:

Here's the messages I'm getting:

Couldn't stat source package list http://ftp.debian.org main/contrib Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.debian.org_stable_dists_main_contrib_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)

You may need to update package information (use Edit/Update List menu option)
Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
