Hello to all
I am a Linux newbie trying to figure out how to install packages for my system, i downloaded the debian linux by ftp on 7 disks the rescue floppy, the custom boot one, the base ones and the drivers one, then during the installation process i didn't use dselect i just continued, now my question is, do i have anything in those disks that i can add to my computer? or those disks just contained the files that linux installed? and another question, in the case that i need to download packages via ftp, i need to know how do i do that? i use windows 95 to connect to the internet and that's how i download the files, but i can't download them to my linux parition they are downloaded to the msdos one, how can i port these files to linux? or how can i tell dselect to retrieve the files from there?
A desperate Linux newbie
