apt and other sources.
When I first install the Debian, I have specified apt source - cdrom. But, after I downloaded a deb pack. into the harddisk, I could not install it by using apt-get install ... Can you give example changes in the /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/source.list file? Should I configure this file or take another action to achieve installing a deb package in the harddisk (e.g /dev/hda1). Sevgi, Saygi, LINUX!!!

Hello, you can install an individual package by: dpkg --install package.deb But if you want to download more packages and use apt, add these lines to /etc/apt/sources.list: deb ftp://ftp.nl.uu.net/debian testing main contrib non-free deb ftp://ftp.nl.uu.net/debian stable main contrib non-free deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable/non-US main contrib non-free deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US testing/non-US main contrib non-free deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security/ potato/updates main contrib deb http://security.debian.org/debian-non-US/ potato/non-US main contrib deb-src ftp://ftp.nl.uu.net/debian stable main contrib non-free This will give you access to the stable (potato) and testing (woody) archive, as well as to non-us, security updates and sources. Change ftp.nl.uu.net with your favorite (nearby) server. Then run: apt-get update If you install a package now with apt, dependencies are solved. Should I configure this file or take another action to achieve installing a deb package in the harddisk (e.g /dev/hda1). You could have a local archive for packages, but that is only attractive if you have losts of non-debian distributed packages. Greetz, Sebastiaan Sevgi, Saygi, LINUX!!!
