I just assembled a Dell Optiplex 745 frankin-box with parts from 5 salvaged machines 3 of which were dell optiplex of similar specs. I had to trick the CMOS/BIOS to get xubuntu 14.04 on the hard drive. I think the upgrade issue may be due to low memory resources. I just found a 2gig kingston DDR. Wish me luck! The 512mb sticks are coming out.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that there was an error on your system when trying to install a particular package. Please execute the following command, as it will clear your package cache, in a terminal:

sudo apt-get clean

Then try performing the update again. This will likely resolve your issue, but the failure could be caused by filesystem or memory corruption. So please also run a fsck on your filesystem(s) and a memory test. Thanks in advance!
