I recently did an HD installation of KNOPPIX, I did as the swf video said on this site to do. Once I got to the desktop after installing, I opened a root terminal, and typed in

"get-apt update"

It gives me a long list of all thse updates,

E: Package could not be open or parsed
E: package list could not be parsed or read
E: error occured while processing libafterstep()
E: Problem with merge list <long path name>

How do I go about fixing the problem, I installed knoppix 3.7 on a pentium 4 computer. Thanks for your time.
