how can i make cd of downloaded updates

please help me. in making updates cd. please i m in great trubble

'$ man apt-get' under the clean category shows that updates are saved to /var/cache/apt/archives until cleaned with 'apt-get clean|autoclean'.

Therefore, I would copy that entire folder (excluding the 'lock' file and the 'partial' directory) onto a CD. Then you can run the *.debs directly from the burnt CD on another Ubuntu system.

After you have burnt them, I would do a 'apt-get clean', so the next time you burn a CD, only new packages will be there.

Depending on your needs (how many updates you want on the CD), and how long it's been since you did a clean, you can do something like:
1) apt-get autoclean OR 1) apt-get clean
2) apt-get update/upgrade
3) <copy packages to disc>
4) apt-get clean

If you want all updates you've ever downloaded (since the last clean & that are still usefull), do the autoclean. If you only want NEW updates, do the clean for step 1.

Dear javed,
There is an application called aptoncd (APT ON CD) install the older version i think 0.1.1 that will make the all updated applications on one CD if data is more it will ask for second CD, but dont go for the latest version as that is not working with ubuntu 9.04.
The same info can be saved in HDD also, the data is in iso image format..and install aptoncd for restoring or copying application updates on offline machines .....hope this is what you were looking.
Thanks
