I would be using a windows box at the library or a net cafe'.I tried updating packages from a 10.04 CD but it only offers a few. I would like to upgrade to the latest LTS without losing my settings & data.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI know I can build a local repository but I'd like to try just moving the appropriate .deb files. My problem is not knowing which files I need and it what order. Example...
I want to install nfs-common
Doing apt-get install nfs-common --- does it all for me when I'm online. So I looked in the /var/cache/apt/archives to see what was installed. I found two nfs files...
nfs-common_1.2.0-4ubuntu4.1_amd64.deb
nfs-kernel-server_1.2.0-4ubuntu4.1_amd64.deb
But when I tried to install those on another machine I found I was missing additional files.
libgssglue1_0.1-4_amd64.deb
libnfsidmap2_0.23-2_amd64.deb
librpcsecgss3_0.19-2_amd64.deb
portmap_6.0.0-1ubuntu2.1_amd64.deb
For future installations. How do I find all the dependencies and the ORDER they need to be installed so I can write my own script and install them to a machine that is offline?
I was able to do this before but, I can't remember where I found the link.I think is was a script or something. It would get all the files that the .Deb will need and make an installer.
P.S. I have Ubuntu 64-bit the PC that need the install is a 32-bit both are 10.04.
Does anyone has the information regarding a collective repository for ubuntu download packages which provides a single download for all the packages or selective packages, may be some torrent sort of links.I know of packages.ubuntu.com but there the packages are dispersed. Downloading each one of them requires a hell lot of time. Doesn't anyone has this information where a one click download of packages is facilitated.

Will download the packages for me, but it doesn't get the dependencies because I have already downloaded them... is there a way to get apt-get to get the dependencies as well?

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there any easy way to do offline package upgrades in Ubuntu? I was using debian's repository for the longest time to get individual packages, then found launchpad. Is there a script or something that will tell you what the dependencies are then let you copy them to a thumbdrive or something?
I know online upgrades are great but there are some cases where online isn't an option. Here's an example. Getting wine. There used to be this repository of .debs from the wine website, but now I can't find it. Launchpad has it, but it's all individual files.
I installed Ubuntu 10.04 in a Raid 0. The install went fine. When I shut down my machine then boot it back up it shows no raid volumes defined and my hard drives as offline. Then the Disk boot error message. I am new to Unbuntu and I am sure the solution is simple I just need to know what to do.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm brand-new to Linux and Ubuntu, and I need to install Wine. I'm installing it on an offline computer, (I'm using Windows on the online pc), and I'm in need of the extra libraries required for proper Wine installation. The easiest way I've seen is to download/install the libraries via internet through the terminal. I can't though, because the computer's offline.
View 2 Replies View RelatedFor testing I made a debian 8 dvd 1 installation on an usb stick. I selected desktop gui gnome and lxde. Both work. An ethernet 100mb cabel connection works. I can open iceweasel an surf websites.
If I open synaptic package manager and select vlc for installation or press 'mark all upgrades' I get this message. Insert disk debian gnulinux 8 jessie official dvd bin in drive.
Synaptic does not try to get packages from the internet.
Is a debian 8 dvd 1 installation an off line installation? The package system will not connect to the internet?
Administering offline Linux boxes can be a serious pain. The Debian flavours now have keryx to make life easier. Keryx is a cross-platform application, which means one can get the dependencies from Windoze too. Is there any similar package for rpm/fedora based flavours? In the absense of a proper Offline manager, I was also wondering if there is a way to collect the output of:
Code:
yum deplist <package>
... condense or sieve out the double listings, and pipe that to a text file? One can copy the output and run
Code:
yum reinstall <paste them here> --downloadonly
and get all the required dependencies from the yum cache. If all that can be accommodated in one script... then that's pretty cool. I don't have the scripting know-how to dive into this.
How is the best way to do this?I have a USB drive that I use to transfer regular data, but how do I download gparted to it, and install it on another computer
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm having problems installing the drivers after doing an install using WUBI.I no longer have the installation disc for 10.10 as I had to reformat my HD after having problems with my Win7 and Ubuntu installation (on separate partitions), so I did this set up so they can co-exist better on the single HD. It's a bit of a long story, so that's the short version.My particular problem is that I am unable to install the drivers needed because I had let WUBI download the disc and after installation I couldn't locate it on my HD. It must have been removed right after installation. I have a copy of the contents on a bootable USB, but I don't know how to point the system/repository to it. So I'm sure I have the all the required materials to make this happen. I just don't know how.
I've located the driver in the media/usb/pool/restricted/ folder, but synaptic/software installer insists on downloading the dependencies even if I don't have internet. I checked the CDROM option of in the repositories panel, but it can't locate the disc.Can anyone tell me which dependency files are needed and the command to install them, if need be. I'm so sorry. I am still very new to linux, but I am quite satisfied about using it as my working environment.
How to install offline software(if No Internet Connection)

I downloaded and installed the newest version of Fedora, version 15, in my refurbished computer. It's the CD version; so much of the stuff are missing, including an office suite. I didn't have a DVD-ROM drive on the system, thus I installed the CD version. On the CD version, I was displeased that I can't install Samba offline; I had to download it. Don't ask me why I don't want to download it, it's just my preference to be able to have a basic computer function like Samba on an official distribution, like a calculator, an office suite (again, was left out), and a file manager.
Fedora's website describes the DVD edition of the operating system as having more software than the CD version. Now, for those who have used the new Fedora and also used Samba, does it come installed, or do you have to go online to download it? I understand if you don't want MP3s or DVD decryption software, but how does LAN file-sharing count as something that's illegal?
is there a way to get urls of the packages that have been updated and then download them in another computer? like this feature of ubuntu HOWTO: Download package dependencies for offline installation - Ubuntu Forums
its a simple feature and its present in smart and synaptic,yet its not in yast (or i havent found it yet.
i would use smart package manager but in my home connection for checking for updates ,yast is better ( smart downloads filelist.xml.gz that is very way biger than what yast downloads (though it enables smart to show filelist of package BEFORE installing) .so at home i can check for package update with yast ,buy downloading them is very hard. (my connectioon is very bad (i live in iran) and yast mirrors are NOT the best of servers ,so yast gets interrupted in middle downloading a rpm and the whole process is waiting for me to press retry ,so i cant do updates and installs overnight.btw is there some way to tell it to retry always or a number of times automatically? )
i need the url links of rpms so i download them separately and install them.
So I am going to dual boot install my desktop at home with windows and ubuntu 10.10. This desktop does not have an Internet connection. However, I have a laptop (hp g61) that I plan on doing the same type of boot config to. So my question is... If I have driver problems or want programs for my desktop, can I get these with my laptop and then transfer to my desktop?. I know I can get some programs from a .dev file I've already got with a lot of various programs that will (I guess) automatically install. My real concern is drivers as I have heard that ati video cards tend to have some problems.

While upgrading to a newer version of Ubuntu I noticed a warning saying that the installation/upgrade should not be interupted. Unfortunately though, during this process my computer froze up and I had to shut it down. Ubuntu no longer starts on my computer. I still have Windows though, which is what I'm using now.
