If that doesn't find it, you don't have it! :) Regards, Christian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What command did you enter to get this error message? Just to clarify, I believe you need to run: "apt-cdrom add" Then I think it will prompt you to put in any Debian cd's that you have. Next, assuming both ted and ted-common are on your cd(s), you can install it with "apt-get install ted" > How do I work out which cdrom it is on? Hmm not sure. Anyway let us know _exactly_ what happens when you run the commands above.

Okay, I'm up to speed on the apt-cd thing and am getting 'ted needs ted-common' when I do $> dkpg ted-common-blah.deb ted-blah.deb Will try with -i, thanks! -- Nick WIlson -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Installing via Apt-Get From a CD?
Hi Nick, Apt only knows about packages sourced in /etc/apt/sources.list. You can install the package manually with dpkg -i filename, or add the appropriate cd source line to /etc/apt/sources.list. See sources.list(5) for the syntax.

Typing $> apt-get install ted just get's 'package not found'. Could someone put me on the right track please? Many thanks.. Have you run apt-setup telling it to scan your CDs? If yes, which CDs? Maybe ted package is not on the CDs you have put in /etc/apt/sources.list You can try mounting the cd and then searching for the package file Massimiliano -- Massimiliano Ferrero Midhgard s.r.l.
