I am not 100% sure why you need gcc to access the internet, all the binaries you should need come preinstalled. Why are you thinking that you need gcc for the internet?

And to answer your question ... someone mentioned this in another post yesterday, but you could download the .deb files while on windows. then mount your windows drive while in ubuntu and install it from there.

go to http://ring.nict.go.jp/archives/linu...n/pool/main/g/ find the version of gcc you want. download the .deb for your arch ( probably i386 ) then when you get the .deb file do:

dpkg --install gcc-x-whatever.deb

The build-essential package is on both Ubuntu CDs--Desktop and Alternate.

Just pop the CD in and

Code:

sudo apt-cdrom add
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude install build-essential

How do you use to connect to the web using Windows? Getting internet access on Ubuntu shouldn't be the hardest exercise...

Ok i did this and i got a "question" if i want to remove the system(some 80% of the ubuntu, not 100%)..so i dont get it y i need to remove the system?

Hm. Maybe aptitude is trying to be a bit too "smart" here.

Try this instead, then:

Code:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential
