Other Help Topics :: problems installing libc6

For the non-Internet DSL user:

Take your DSL CD over to a computer with 128MB of ram, a CD burner and has access to the Internet. Boot it up and get online.

Follow ke4nt's advice.

When you are done, grab all of the *.deb files that are sitting in /var/cache/apt/archives directory and burn them to a blank CD-R disk using bashburn, gcombust (as user 'root') or command line tools.

load the files into your non-internet DSL computer (with dpkg already restored, of course) and open up an xterm.

change directory over to the place where your previously burned *.deb cd-r files are located, or change over to the cdrom mountpoint if you want to take them directly off of the CD-r disk.

Type:

sudo su
dpkg -i filename1.deb filename2.deb filename3.deb (and so on)
exit

or you can do a dpkg -i for each filename but you may get some dependency errors.

Good Luck.

thanks for the help

I will see what happens.
