AOL on Linux
Hi everyone... New to these board. Have been trying to find the answer to this question and I hope someone here can help...
I have AOL. Ok, there I said it... I have Dial up AOL. eeeck.. I know.. I'm sorry.. I have a broadband connection at work though, which is how I have been getting most of my files. DL'ing them at work and putting them onto my USBkey, USBkey to the laptop and transfer files over that way...
Ok.. so I have feather installed, kicks but, love it.. great. But with all I've read over the last few weeks, it apparent to me that most Live Linux CD distributions require an internet connection of some type in order to completely install themselves onto the hard drive.. I ran dpkg-get and it appears to have installed it self correctly. At the end of the script it tries to do apt-update but it cant because, well, I have no connection...
So I have the AOL on Linux program called penggy. It file name is, penggy_0.r.1-3_i386.deb... I ran dpkg -i penggy_0.r.1-3_i386.deb and got
dpkg: unable to access dpkg status area: No such file or directory
What do I do?? What are my options for getting apt-get to update? Hoping someone can help...
