offline usage

Asked by jcmb

Is there a way to configure UCK for offline usage? I don't want to have to connect to the Internet to acquire packages. In fact, I was attemping to perform a customization without adding any additional packages to the Ubuntu 7.10 desktop installation CD and it still failed because it attempted to connect to the repositories.

You can comment-out "apt-get update" in UCK source code, then it will not try to connect to server. Then you can use console to install/update packages in whatever way you like.

Thanks, as long as that's the only place in the code that needs an Internet connection I should be good to go.
