I am running Ubuntu 12.04 on my USB. I have everything from LibreOffice but the Base app. When I search in the Software center it comes up and I click install but after 30 seconds it fails with this message:

Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openjdk-6/openjdk-6-jre-headless_6b24-1.11.5-0ubuntu1~12.04.1_i386.deb 404  Not Found [IP: 91.189.92.200 80]

(First two only as I need "reputation 12 to post more than 2 links")

What is happening? Please keep in mind that I am a complete NOOBIE to Linux and Ubuntu! Is there anyway I can get Base? Or am I SOL? Thanks!

It appears that the files it's trying to download actually do not exist.

This suggests that you have not run

sudo apt-get update

before running a command like sudo apt-get install ....

So, try running sudo apt-get update first. That may fix this problem.
