I typed in terminal

Code:

sudo apt-get install gnome-shell

then it says some 54mb space will be used.
then issues a warning message:

Code:

then after some attempts of fetching from repos, it gives error message like this:

Code:

E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?

Deleted wrong answer, was for debian, not ubuntu.
You need to get the gpg keys.

Kind regards
