Hi all.I installed Debian from a pendrive, everything fine. Now I want to install some packages from there, but the system only accepts CDs for that. If I start the Debian Installer, it wants to format the partition, what I don't want.Thanks for any help, Rodolfo
First the standard way: Make sure you have a line like this in /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://http.debian.net/debian stable main non-free contrib run sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install <the package you want> If the program isn't found online, but is on your pendrive you can install a package with: sudo dpkg -i <the package you want.deb> If there are missing dependencies you can fix them (if you are online) with sudo apt-get -f install success, floris
