    Hey!

     

    I hope it's good place to post this as I couldn't find any better...

     

     

    When I try to install, I get

    E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

    Installation failed.
     

     

    The reason for this is lack of support for ubuntu 10.10 and higher, but as a matter of fact I suppose it WOULD be working fine on 13 if I could somehow change the url the installer is using to get data. Also I was thinking of installing 10.04 on new machine (finally I'm migrating to thinkpad w530 ^^) install the software and then update to 13.10 but I'd like to know if there's other solution, as a matter of fact it looks like installer problem only at least at this stage.

    It's risky, but could be done.  Just add a manual dns entry that rebinds those URLs to something else.  I wouldn't recommend it though.
