ROS Indigo Installation errors
Hi,
I’m new to ROS, therefore getting into trouble during installation.
I have Ubuntu 14.04 running on my computer and I’m trying to install ROS Indigo.
Setup of Source.List and Setup of Keys was successfully completed but the sudo apt-get update
gives a lot of errors .
W: Failed to fetch http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-i386/Packages Hash Sum mismatch
W: Failed to fetch http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty/Release Unable to find expected entry 'restricted/source/Sources' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
Please open System Settings > Software & Updates and select another server than your current one in the Download from: dropdown menu. Then try again and tell if the problem still occurs...
Yes the problem still occurs.

Is there any alternate way I can download ROS? this will be my 3rd day trying to download ROS.
Did you already try to run
sudo apt-get clean
and then runsudo apt-get update
again? And maybe try to delete/var/lib/apt/lists/*
? Don't give up now, there will be bigger challenges in the future if you continue learning ros :-)There is an alternative way by installing ros from source.. Believe me, you don't want it like that as for the beginning ;)
Yes I have already tried
sudo apt-get clean
/var/lib/apt/lists/*
,and almost everything I could find on googlePS: changing servers sometimes creates additional errors, sometimes removes additional errors but
always remains.
I'll try wiping my Ubuntu 14.04 clean/re-install and try everything again. If that doesn't work then I'll remove 14.04 and install 16.04
