hey man!why do u want to remove tzdata?
if it complains,read between lines-go for updated tzdata from hardy's repo.
download and install this!
*mirror.lupaworld.com/ubuntu/pool/main/t/tzdata/tzdata_2008b-1ubuntu1_all.deb

dont purge anything!first finish things!

see,first download latest libc6 from the repo.
*mirror.lupaworld.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/glibc/libc6_2.7-10ubuntu3_i386.deb
followed by upgrading tzdata
*mirror.lupaworld.com/ubuntu/pool/main/t/tzdata/tzdata_2008b-1ubuntu1_all.deb

thats it!just note what dependency error it is showing and install one by one.

EVEN IF IT ERROR OUT!
..and post the whole messages here.

This is just going nowhere. Better would be to get a hardy CD/DVD from somewhere. Can you arrange for it from someone nearby?

aahaa!good going nidhish!now you have to resolve only one dependency.
I appreciate your patience :D
now download and install this:-
*mirror.lupaworld.com/ubuntu/pool/r...tricted-modules-generic_2.6.24.16.18_i386.deb

after everything is finished,run this:-
Code:
sudo dpkg --configure -a
that's it! :) now itself you can boot with hardy's 2.6.24 kernel.
then check the output of "ifconfig" in terminal.
make sure it shows "eth0" interface :)

1.install linux-restricted-modules-generic first by "sudo dpkg -i"
here is the link :-
*ubuntu.task.gda.pl/ubuntu/pool/res...tricted-modules-generic_2.6.24.16.18_i386.deb
^sure!it will show some errors,DONT mind,next

2.now install below packages.both look similar but are different.
*mirror.lupaworld.com/ubuntu/pool/r...es-2.6.24-16-generic_2.6.24.12-16.34_i386.deb

now,
do a :-
Code:
sudo dpkg --configure -a
and post the output!

:lol: :lol:

nitist, mehul's point is: when there is an easier way, why do it the other way?

Always use package managers like yum or apt

well,another dependency is missing.download this one(only 25kb).
*mirror.lupaworld.com/ubuntu/pool/r...ricted-modules-common_2.6.24.12-16.34_all.deb
install it as "sudo dpkg -i".later do a "sudo dpkg --configure -a".
thats it!no more dep hell :D

@nitish:you got eth0 up(did u noticed?).now configure dataone using "sudo pppoeconf".

@mehul:Can you tell me,how can he use apt on Ubuntu where his lan card is not detected?

congrats.you solved the dependency hell :D
@nithish:that may be due to networkmanager crap installed.will you like to remove that?
do as follows .
Code:
sudo apt-get remove --purge network-manager
along with it,it will remove some gnome dep also.it is fine.

now,make sure,"ifconfig" output shows "eth0" up.

and do u have dhcp enabled?are you on a network?
