Does anyone know how to fix this?<br><br>Post edited by: vikram, at: 2008/02/15 01:18
I am probably getting into something way over my head, but before installation of VM, an update of the OS is required. You probably did that.
Then I noticed:
Failed to fetch http://software.virtualmin.com/gpl/ubuntu/dists/virtualmin-dapper/main/b... 404 Not Found
Per haps a manual install of whatever that is will help.
Sorry if my answer didn't help much as I am no expert at all.
Ubuntu is not supported by the Virtualmin GPL installer. Only CentOS 4/5 and Debian 4.0 are currently supported. The Virtualmin Professional installer does support Ubuntu 6.06, though it's a little long in the teeth at the moment, and Debian 4.0 provides a nicer experience.

UPDATE: According to Joe Ubuntu 8.04 is supported by the Virtualmin GPL installer since 2008/05/08.
