This guide should answer the majority of your questions and give you an idea what to expect here on the forum, so please read it before posting: http://doc.slitaz.org/en:guides:read

The above is pretty much just an abridged and adapted for SliTaz version of the points found @ http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm

The above link deals more in detail with common complaints Linux Beginners have with regards to Linux and it's communities. Please read it to get a better understanding about Linux.

To fix the packages repository issue:
Follow these steps if you suddenly can't download and install packages:

From a Terminal program like Sakura:
1. su to root
2. tazpkg setup-mirror and enter http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/mirror/slitaz/packages/stable/ as the url for SliTaz 4.0 or enter http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/mirror/slitaz/packages/cooking/ for SliTaz Cooking/Rolling
3. tazpkg recharge

From SliTaz Panel:
1. Go to http://tazpanel:82/pkgs.cgi?admin
2. Go to Current mirror list and click the arrow next to the mirror address to make it the default mirror

Other Repositories:
stable: add stable/ to the end of address
cooking: add cooking/ to the end of address

@ tous les utilisateurs francophones,

La procédure ci-dessus n'a pas fonctionné pour moi
- à partir du terminal, tant que je n'ai pas eu effacé tous les fichiers du répertoire /var/lib/tazpkg (mais pas le dossier "installed")
- à partir de TazPanel, tant que je n'ai pas eu effacé tous les fichiers du répertoire /var/lib/tazpkg ET remplacé la langue française par l'anglais suivi d'une fermeture/ouverture de session.
@ all users using french in SliTaz,

The procedure above didn't work for me
- from a terminal as long as I did'nt hav deleted all the files in /var/lib/tazpkg (but not the folder "installed")
- and from TazPanel as long as I didn'nt have deleted all the files in /var/lib/tazpkg AND changed french language by english and a logout/login.
