Make sure you did "sudo su", enter your password, try to edit it again.

bongo's tip is not bad. Even better would be
Code Select
sudo editor /etc/apt/sources.list
If I helped you, feel free to buy me a coffee: [url="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=2VKASZLTJH7ES"]https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=2VKASZLTJH7ES[/url]

I did edit /etc/apt/sources.list but it breaks the installer

will the files that cannot be found during installation be included in an upcoming snapshot?   For some reason I was getting hung on Alsa package linuxmce beta2 repository.  That confused me since it is still available.
