hanging update

[Errol Sapir]

It didn't crash in an apt operation except for the fact that I have to 
end any attempt to install or upgrade with cntl/C. As I said it's a 
fresh installation. I tried to install synaptic  through th Kmanager and 
got the message that there was a connection to the internet problem. I 
then tried to install synaptic with sudo ap-get install and it also 
"hung" with the bzip2 line.
So any update or installation hangs in the same way in the terminal.
