不过,Ubuntu还是没有忘记广大用户,虽然要我们常用的Ubuntu.com中不再支持这些旧版,但Ubuntu在 http://old-releases.ubuntu.com这个站点中,把所有的旧的发行版以及源都准备好了给广大站长享用了,你要做的就是把你的sources.list文件稍微更改一下,把原来你所用的域名替换成old-releases.ubuntu.com就可以了,然后再apt-get update一下,就可以使用了。
比如Ubuntu 6.10(Edgy)的源sources.list内容如下:
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-proposed main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-backports main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy main restricted universe multiverse
deb-src http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy-security main restricted universe multiverse
