I had to re-install a fresh 14.04 LTS version.
First of all, it took me a whole night(or nearby) to install it.
Every installation of package (via ubuntu library or via sudo apt-get update ... sudo apt-get install - for example sudo apt-get install freefilesync) take ages.
I'm runnig a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
Any Idea
There is a good chance that you have selected an Ubuntu Repository mirror that is giving poor performance. You can ping all of the available servers and then select the best performing one by:
- Opening 'Software & Updates
- Selecting the tab 'Ubuntu'
- Selecting 'Other...' from the 'Download From...' dropdown box
- Selecting 'Select Best Server' from the 'Choose a Download Server' box
Below is a screen capture demonstrating these steps:
Then you need to:
- Select the best server with 'Choose Server'
- Authenticate with your password and reload the sources list when prompted
Bear in mind that this will not necessarily be the closest server to you geographically, the fastest server at that time will be selected. Depending on network load, time of day etc this server may not always be the best...
