    Upgrading after hdd install

    hi all,
    I've just finished installing knoppix onto my hard drive without any problems . But I want to get clear on some of the things..

    1) Is there anything wrongt with the '/etc/apt/sources.list' file, 'cause when I do
    Code:
    apt-get update
    , I get lots of 'file not found' errors and will not be able to install anything. So I edited the sources file to contain only those packages from debian.org. Now, where can I get a list of working mirrors (stable, testing and unstable), so that I can do a nead update.

    2) If I have a good sources list file, will
    Code:
    apt-get update
    and
    Code:
    apt-get upgrade
    work properly as in Debian

    3) I am not able to install alsa properly. I get the following errors when I try to install alsa

    Code:
    apt-get -f install
    Reading Package Lists... Done
    Building Dependency Tree... Done
    Correcting dependencies... Done
    The following extra packages will be installed:
      alsa-utils
    Suggested packages:
      alsadriver
    The following NEW packages will be installed:
      alsa-utils
    0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 76 not upgraded.
    1 not fully installed or removed.
    Need to get 0B/129kB of archives.
    After unpacking 381kB of additional disk space will be used.
    Do you want to continue? [Y/n] Y
    (Reading database ... 106700 files and directories currently installed.)
    Unpacking alsa-utils (from .../alsa-utils_1.0.4-1_i386.deb) ...
    dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/alsa-utils_1.0.4-1_i386.deb (--unpack):
     trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/alsamixer', which is also in package knx-alsa
    dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
    Errors were encountered while processing:
     /var/cache/apt/archives/alsa-utils_1.0.4-1_i386.deb
    E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
    thank you in advance
