If your system is unconventional (using removable disk) any relevant information you can provide might help us understand your set up.

What changed between the last successful update/upgrade and the current state ?

In the meantime we can have a look at your configured repositories.
Please open a terminal by pressing 'Ctrl', 'Alt' and 'T' and type/paste in the following commands.
Followed each command with 'Enter'.
Code:
cat /etc/apt/sources.list
Code:
inxi -r
Post the results back to the forum.
