Re: Newbie Question
Why not using apt-get??
Like ``apt-get install whatever''.
(But first do ``apt-cdrom add''
for the whole set of Potato CDs,
that will read the package info.
You have to do this only once...
The source for this is at
``/etc/apt/sources.list'' file)
For example:
# apt-cdrom add
(loop for the whole CD set)
# apt-get install joe
Or if you want to upgrade the whole
distribution do:
# apt-get dist-upgrade
Bye,
Lori.
