I saved PHP and MySQL packages to my flash drive, moved the files onto my Ubuntu hard drive, navigated the terminal into the directory containing those deb files and ran dpkg. The install failed due to dependencies. Right now I am at a place where I can download files, and when I go home, I will save them to the directory with the deb files. (I have not acquired and IP @ home yet, Long story) I am assuming that all I need to do is save the dependency files to my flash drive and mv the files to the directory with the deb files and this should ensure a successful dpkg install. I will be trying this tonight, when I am away from an internet connection.
If my assumptions are correct, then no one need reply to this thread, but if you see something wrong with this picture, please let me know.
