Hi,
I've installed a fresh Xbian 1.0 alpha 3 on my SD card but when I try to upgrade apt's sources, I got this error:

Quote:Reading package lists... Error!
E: Encountered a section with no Package: header
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/aptmirror.no-ip.org_dists_wheezy_main_binary-armhf_Packages
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

...and I can't upgrade my system.
Can somebody help me?
Thanks!

Code:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Ok thanks but when I've downloaded all of the package, apt-get gave me an error:

Did you do my steps?

This error is a bug in the original raspbian repo, we can't do anything about it. Just install the rest and leave this package out.

I don't know if it's a real bug, but I've installed the newest kernel first (3.6.11+) and it was active after a reboot.
But after a "sudo apt-get update" + "sudo apt-get upgrade" + Reboot it was reverted back to the old one and I had to switch to the new one via xbian-config again.

Depends on what packages where installed...
