Kpackage fails to update update
when I use the command line apt-get update
It seems to go through but I get the following errors

w: Not using locking for read only lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock

e: Unable to write to /var/cache/apt/

e: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened

I am running off the CD with a persistant home directory on my HD

I am a relative newbie so any help is appreciated
