 sure, just cp the .debs from /var/cache/apt/archives and then install
 them. 
 Or install apt-proxy on the desktop system, and point the laptop's
 sources.list at the desktop instead of the real sources.
 
 He says the laptop has no network connection - see above.

So he does.  Then he must copy the contents of
/var/cache/apt/archives piecemeal via DVD-R, or similar method.

Or... realize that difficult choices must be made when dealing with
old hardware.  In this case, the Desktop needs to download a DVD
.iso, or the first couple of CD .ISOs, and have the laptop install
that way.

I did so, and now I can use apt-zip to transfer packages from my Desktop
Debian Etch to my laptop Debian Etch system.

But, apt-zip-list and ./fetch-script-wget-debian-asztal download to
/media/usb0/ directory only that packages, which isn't in the repository
of the Desktop system.

Say, I have installed on Desktop Etch mc and less, but fp-compiler,
fp-units-rtl not. 

When I do 
apt-zip-list -m /media/usb0 -p less,mc,fp-compiler,fp-units-rtl

and

/media/usb0/./fetch-script-wget-debian-asztal

there in the /media/usb0/ directory I find only:

fp-compiler_2.0.0-4_i386.deb
fp-units-rtl_2.0.0-4_i386.deb

but not mc and less debian packages.

What is the solution for this problem?

I'm sorry, I am not actually familiar with apt-zip; I was just

 if it isn't many files it is a good solutione (dpkg -i file.deb to

Why not nfs mount /var/cache/apt/archives?

That s what I usd to do.

Does the laptop happen to have a serial port?  You could connect a null
modem between the laptop and the desktop boxes and run ppp.  This not
only allows transfering files, but gives access to the internet via the
desktop (with suitable forwarding setup) so that install can proceed
normally.

Sooner or later I shall by an PCMCIA ethernet card for laptop.

I use an USB drive and this apt HOWTO:

so I can now to install packages from Desktop to laptop.

I have only an error message when install from this local repository

How can I get rid of this message?

Symple method to transfer some packages from Desktop system to laptop Debian Etch system?

2008-01-26 Thread Paul Csanyi
Hello!

I have a Desktop Debian GNU/Linux Etch with network connection,
and a laptop with installed only Debian GNU/Linux from netinstall.iso,
but laptop has not network connection.

I downloaded this netinst.iso and I want not to download any more
CD iso files.

Is it a method how to copy some more debian packages from
my desktop Debian Etch to laptop Debian Etch, say with USB drive?

I can't use apt-zip on laptop system because the netinst.iso CD does
not have apt-zip package.

The bootcd application can write only the whole system to laptop, but
I want not this to do.

Are there any other symple method to transfer some packages from
my Desktop Debian Etch system to my laptop Debian Etch system?

Any advice will be appreciated!
