After starting my Flidas liveUSB and trying to be able to update my applications I went to the terminal and entered the usual command (sudo apt update )and got the following response:

I'm getting the same error today. Maybe there is a problem with the server?

Are you still on Trisquel 8?

The Swedish mirror works fine on T9.

Thank you for your comment!
Yes, I'm still on T8.
Do you think it is possible to update T8 from the Swedish mirror?
If so, what should I type in the terminal to update it?
Thank you in advance.

Yes, T8.
I was actually thinking of upgrading this weekend, will have to wait until all is resolved.
