Hi,

check out this guide and change your software download location sources list then run "DPKG" in recovery mode (using a network cable and activate network first) and try installing it again after a complete reboot!!:

Hi,

Firefox is also available via Synaptic or the command line in a terminal:

sudo apt-get install firefox

make sure you do what I suggested before about running "DPKG" and you shouldn't have any problems.
