Download issues when updating RPI 3

Hi

After doing sudo apt-update and sudo dist-upgrade, I encounter issues that it cannot download any repositories from the US server on my Ubuntu-Mate 18.04.2

Hi,

try changing your download location to a different server like the UK, it may help?. :thinking:

Hi, Still getting the same issues. I have only two options. One is the Main Server and the other United States.

Hi,

you have several 404 messages so take a look at the following link and the section regarding changing repo locations. " Changing your software sources download location". :grinning:
