    knoppix 8.6.1 : apt update fails due to security issue

    Hello,

    Long time ago I burned 8.6.1 on a DOK and ran: sudo apt update with not problems.

    Now I tried the same and got several problems.
    1. I had to remove /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00knoppix

    2. I had to run: sudo RUN echo "deb http://security.d
    ebian.org/debian-security bullseye-security main contrib non-free" > /etc/apt/
    sources.list

    3. I had to run
    sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 6ED0E7B82643E131

    Now I got:
    The repository 'http://security.debian.org stable/updates Release' does not
    have a Release file.

    In my opinion - big mistake.
    Why can't I use a previous knoppix version ?

    I did the same with centos 7.2 (for example) which is also old.
    Works like a charm.

    All I'm trying is to install grub-efi. Till now I spent several hours on a quite simple installation which should work.

    Thank you,
    Zvika

    Hello,


    In 9.1 I modified /etc/apt/sources.list:


    deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian bullseye main contrib non-free
    All other 'deb' lines were blocked (#)
    This is because 9.1 is based on debian bullseye.


    Then, sudo apt-get update worked.


    Thank you,
    Zvika
