I suggest you report a bug. Zesty is not ready and not stable.

If you want to help get Zesty ready for release in April and don't mind bugs and feature holes and want to report bugs then by all means use Zesty.

If you want an OS that works as expected then I suggest you wipe the install off and do a clean install of Xenial. Xenial is LTS and supported til April 2021 and is rock solid.

The release is in Alpha stages.

What did you expect

#2

"sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.old"

What do you expect from this command?
It disables an important configuration file for the package management system.

What do you get for the command

sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list.old /etc/apt/sources.list
cat -n /etc/apt/sources.list

Can you help with this problem?

Provide an answer of your own, or ask liz for more information if necessary.
