Ubuntu without Internet Connection You can install packages.


The packages will be in the folder “/var/cache/apt/archives”. Copy it to a pen-drive, whose name is say “Prince”. This removable media will be mounted in the drive “/media/Prince”. You can check their paths when you open it for browsing by clicking on the “location” icon.







In your home, give these commands in the terminal:

cd /media/Prince/archives

sudo cp -R * /var/cache/apt/archives


OR

In the terminal u give " sudo nautilus"

THEN give PASSWORD..........THEN OPEN ROOT FOLDER.IN THER YOU FIND "/var/cache/apt/archives"

AND PASTE ALL packages.

Now, if you want to install all the packages your friend has, give this command:

sudo dpkg -i *

However, if you want to install just selected packages(not have enough space in your system or something like that), give this command:

sudo apt-get update

Then, go to Synaptic Package Manager and install the packages you want.
