A quick suggestion to try and get going again: Manually download the 
reposTools package from www.bioconductor.org.  Then either try again 
with getBioC() or use the install.packages2 function in reposTools to 
install the parts of Bioconductor that you want.


Are you picking up packages that were installed in your old version of 
R by any chance?  You can use the function .libPaths() to see a list of 
paths where R is searching for packages.  It won't print anything out, 
so assign to a variable like:

z = .libPaths()
z

Does this error happen repeatedly in the same way?
