After trying to upgrade from 17.04 to 18.0 this message appears:

I have a netbook eMachines E350, Intel Atom processor, and 2GB RAM memory. Is it necessary to download the 18.04 ISO image?

  • There was no 2018.August (18.08) release of Ubuntu. Ubuntu 17.04's upgrade path was to 17.10, then to 18.04. Both 17.04 & 17.10 are now EOL, and after a release reaches EOL it's repositories get moved (next comment will provide information on this) which is why you get errors. I'd suggest re-installing 18.04 (particularly Xubuntu 18.04 LTS or Lubuntu 18.04 LTS as they are lighter than gnome-based Ubuntu 18.04 LTS) but you could upgrade to 17.10 then 18.04 LTS but it'd take a lot longer & more effort. – guiverc Jan 02 '19 at 04:18
  • I would suggest sticking to LTS or Long-Term-Support releases if you don't want to upgrade every 9 months as required by non-LTS releases. Ubuntu 17.04 reached EOL back on 13-January-2018. – guiverc Jan 02 '19 at 04:20

First, remove reported error repository from Ubuntu Software & updates -> Other Software and try it to upgrade again.
