Hello, I successfully installed Duvean on my HP Elitebook 64 bit.
Happy!
Performed an update through xDaily afterwards.
Again success.
However, after reloading Synaptic I get the following message:
'Could not download all repository indexes'
And a bit further:
'The repository 'http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera/updates Release' does not have a Release file.'
For more info I refer to the attachment, if that's alright with you.
Network connection is fine.
What to do now?
Thanks!
First I need you to check if the sources.liste doesn't have any errors. use these commands to do it
cat /etc/apt/sources.list
check if it's like this
# Main Repo - main contrib non-freedebhttp://deb.devuan.org/mergedchimaeramaincontribnon-free#deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera main contrib non-free# Security Repo - main contrib non-freedebhttp://deb.devuan.org/mergedchimaera-securitymaincontribnon-free#deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera-security main contrib non-free# Updates Repo - main contrib non-freedebhttp://deb.devuan.org/mergedchimaera-updatesmaincontribnon-free#deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera-updates main contrib non-free# chimaera-backports, previously on backports.debian.orgdebhttp://deb.devuan.org/mergedchimaera-backportsmaincontribnon-free#deb-src http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera-backports main contrib non-free
if not use this command sudo mousepad /etc/apt/sources.list
and make the necessary corrections and then save and update the repositories again.

Hi LPE,
Your sources.list text file is not correct, as it states a matching "deb cdrom" used.
Compare these sources.list files from a pure Debian Netinstall and a Calamares (PMOS)Devuan and (PMOS) Debian installs.
Debian

The opening line suggests you do not have a genuine copy of PMOS Devuan install, but some sort of hybrid Debian and Devuan concoction. It is definitely not a (PMOS) Devuan install.
Please perform a rinse and wipe of your donor computer and, download a fresh iso from here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/peppermintos/files/ and do a clean and rinse of your USB stick before burning the new iso to your USB.
Your sources.list file should conform to the above (PMOS) Devuan sources.list file.
Thanks for your time and input Cavy!!
Cleaned up the usb and ssd and
learned another lesson.
Performed a 'reload' in Synaptic after install and Xdaily update,
but no errors this time. Happy!
Feel a bit silly for overlooking this issue which you pointed out,
but then again kinda fulfilled for fixing it.
Easy peasy it was.
Also a big thanks to Manuel Rosa and Peppermint for responding.
Please mark as solved, admins.

Open a terminal and run sudo xDaily if you continue to get those error messages check your sources.list file found at cat /etc/apt/sources.list see enclosed screenshot.
We had to perform Some maint on the peppermint repo server - you should be good to go now. the next time you update that repo it will connect., Probably the same situation on the http://www.deb-multimedia.org one as well we don't own that one but just guessing.
The thing to remember those two are "extra" they are not critical..and they are maintained by just a few people meaning that sometimes outages do happen where as the main devuan and debian repos have way more fallback servers.... if you want to suppress these errors you can comment them out in your sources. it wont hurt anything.,
Let me know if you have any questions sorry for the trouble

Hi, I am fine, thank you.
Performed a re install, I think so, and get the same error.
See photo mousepad.
Underneath the lay out of the re install.
Err:8 is the issue here, no Release file present.
Hope this helps, but I am tired now off to bed.
Thanks for your time and sorry for the lengthy post.

Thanks, admins!
Don't know if this helps, I didn't have this issue when I installed
Devuan 32-bit on an old HP 6730b

Please peruse our wiki: https://sourceforge.net/p/peppermintos/pepwiki/wiki%20home%20page/
for tutorials, tweaks and tips to enhance your install.
Are you aware of over-provisioning recommendation for SSD's, and that 10% of the drive to be left unformatted.
Thanks again, and yes, I am aware of this recommendation. (Opinions vary about this subject but that is off topic.)

Hi there Cavy. I had an extra line at the bottom of my list that wasn't in the screenshot.

Logged in as root and deleted the line and it appears to be updating fine now. Thanks for all your help.

I can confirm.
Yesterday evening and today, I can not update synaptic
However, just as a test, I installed " xpdf " without a problem today
