[LUNI] Can't apt update, was: oh oh, my raid it having problems

[W. Scott Lockwood III]

How about 'apt-get update && apt-get upgrade' ?

Or, you could boot from a rescue cd, mount your system and chroot it, and
then see if you can run the update?

Subject: [LUNI] Can't apt update, was: oh oh, my raid it having problems

I can't seem to do an apt update.  My sources.list looks like:

iron:~# cat /etc/apt/sources.list
#deb file:///cdrom/ sarge main

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ sarge main contrib non-free
#deb-src ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ sarge main
deb http://security.debian.org/ sarge/updates main contrib non-free

I keep getting:

iron:~# aptitude update
