Hi,
I'm trying to install openfoam 1.7.1 on our new computer and I keep on getting this error:

Ign http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com natty-updates/universe Translation-en_CA
Ign http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com natty-updates/universe Translation-en
W: Failed to fetch http://www.openfoam.com/download/ubu...amd64/Packages 404 Not Found

W: Failed to fetch http://www.openfoam.com/download/ubu...amd64/Packages 404 Not Found

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead
.

I can't proceed from here since it looks like openfoam hasn't been downloaded for installation. Also, it seems none of the source for 64bit is available for download, is that right?

I have to say that, it did work on Ubuntu 10.4 LTS, and not sure if it's coming from the fact that my OS is now 11.04. If the later is true, then it's silly because one would expect the newer version to handle all the "old" stuff unless one is following Microsoft philosophy of always creating job for the boys.

Anyway, if anyone had experience on this or have suggestions, please feel free to drop me lines. Thanks.
