Error updating BT5
Hello appreciated community :o
I got a problem when I proceed to update and upgrade BT5. I'm trying to get a better performance of BT5 but I got this:
Code:
root@bt:~# apt-get upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages have been kept back:
backtrack-utils framework3 linux-image linux-source set tcpreplay
The following packages will be upgraded:

Need to get 0B/162MB of archives.
After this operation, 0B of additional disk space will be used.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y
E: Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
E: Prior errors apply to /var/cache/apt/archives/skipfish_2.00-bt0_i386.deb

dpkg: failed in buffer_read(fd): copy info file `/var/lib/dpkg/available': Input/output error

So What can I do to resolve this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Re: Error updating BT5
run @bt:~# apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
instead. you should really spend some more time searching for easy answers to questions like this before creating a new thread. it has to be mentioned; it's probably why you haven't gotten any replies to something this easy. look up either sickness' bt5, or maxfx's bt5, updater python scripts on here for something way more elegant and comprehensive from either, than you will get from a simple update && dist-upgrade.
it's your first post and question on here... no harm, no foul. asking for spoonfed answers will only last so long. just a simple word of advice. do your own research first until you hit a *real* brick wall and have no choice other than to ask for help.
might actually learn something. :)
