Please keep the discussion on the list.

I'm guessing you mean aptitude? So you have just installed Debian from
an installation cd and you are unsure of what to do next?

Since you are Portuguese, then as root, type the following:

aptitude update
then
aptitude install debian-reference-pt-br pratico quick-reference-pt-br

If you want to know about aptitude, then also:
aptitude install aptitude-doc-en

Unfortunately there seems to be no Portuguese translation of the
aptitude documentation. 

If you have any more questions, don't hesitate to ask. But please keep
the discussion on the debian-user list.
