I am not sure what you mean by six DVDs of Ubuntu since Ubuntu comes on CD and not DVD. Are these perhaps DVDs of debs and not installation DVDs in which case they are not Ubuntu but Ubuntu debs. Sorry if this sounds picky, but it is confusing as written.
If they are just debs on DVD then Synaptic is no help since you won't be using Synaptic to do the installing but dpkg or Gdebi. You can browse the DVD with a file manager and find the individual debs and install by clicking on it or better still search for it using the search feature of Nautilus. Clicking the deb will launch Gdebi and offer to install it. If you have lots to install then you might be able to make a script to do it using dpkg, but that would mean having a disk catalogue in in a text file. Apt-get and Synaptic are not the tools for installing debs. Roy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Linux Users Group.
