Sometimes the repository server is busy and you get this kind of errors. Try connecting to another server to install the updates.

Hi,

I also use the Belgian repository mirrors and had the exact same error as you a few minutes ago.

Workaround procedure is as follows:

Use a text editor and root privileges to edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list

Replace all occurrences of be.archive with nl.archive

Then run the commands:

sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude dist-upgrade

Regards,

Mark

Open the System → Administration → Software Sources

open the [Ubuntu Software] tab select main server

Then open a Terminal from the menu Applications → Accessories → Terminal and type:

sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo apt-get --fix-missing install
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get autoremove

Hope this helps
