How to install .deb package as non-root user?

How can one install .deb package as non-root user? I see a 'dpkg --root' parameter, but it doesn't seem to help (as per below). Redhat's rpm can install with an non-root account; why not dpkg/apt/wajig...or maybe one of these things can do this somehow and I don't know about it? I'm part of

Grub error 18

I just got Debian installed on my extra computer, but whenever I start it, it says error 18, and stops. I have found out that error 18 has something to do with the boot loader and 8 gigs, but I'm not sure. I have a 30 gigabyte Seagate Barracuda, and I installed Debian using a netboot from tw

Grub + CD-ROM

Hi guys, I have a curious problem whereby my notebook won't boot off a CD-ROM. Now I'm trying to find a way to get around this. I have, on another PC, in my GRUB config, this: chainloader (fd0)+1 which is convenient because if I want to test something on a stiffy I don't have to change my BIOS
