Your sources.list file is still set up to use the CD disk for files, and the CD doesn't have many files on it anyway. Edit your source.list file with the following:
Code:
su
nano /etc/apt/sources.list
When nano opens the file, edit it to look like this:
Code:
deb http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian wheezy main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian wheezy main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main contrib non-free
# wheezy-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian wheezy-updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian wheezy-updates main contrib non-free
My server is in the Netherlands, so everywhere you see "nl" above, you can replace it with the two letter country code of your own country. You can still use it exactly as above, it just means that apt will fetch the files from the Netherlands. It might be a little faster to fetch them from a server closer to your home. Once you have edited sources.list, save it with ctrl+O and exit with ctrl+X. Next, run:
Quote:
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade
|
The first command will update your server to see all of the files available. The next command will apply any updates that have been released since the files on your CD rom disk were released.
From there on, you can install anything from the main, contrib, and non-free repositories shown in the sources.list file. If you want a graphical interface to install software, run:
Code:
apt-get install synaptic
Synaptic should then be available on your desktop environment menu somewhere. You can use synaptic to search for software, apply updates, and install new software.
