I used the script from here: https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/index.php?topic=1145.msg7014#msg7014

Used the option repositories to get the list. Is that not the correct list?

Changed the server to the main us server and no problem installing kernel 3.18

Use can install the latest mainline kernel in LL anytime by doing:

Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-linuxlite-3.1x.0 linux-image-linuxlite-3.1x.0 -y
Where x is the number of the kernel (the latest is '8' for 3.18)

I did that after i changed the server to a dutch one and then got the error message that the server couldnt find the kernel.
I am sorry but i forgot to write down which server it was and cant remember it.

Do a timed ping (not sure how it is done, sorry, maybe others know?!?) on various servers.

-----

You can also find their IP (use ping) and then find their IP locations using one of the online IP location finder in

https://duckduckgo.com/?t=lm&q=ip+location&ia=about

Then choose the server nearest you.

I would use the archive.ubuntu  one which is normally the main server and then click reload.

Thanks for your answer..did set it to that one and reloaded
