Hi,

Ubuntu should already have apt-get in /usr/bin/. What do the following commands return?
Code:
file /usr/bin/apt-get
which apt-get
echo $PATH

Hi,
I belive LPC3250 is an embedded board. You can try the busy-box based filesystem from http://www.busybox.net/.

You may not get every command, but this is good for all your needs.

Thanks for your reply suresh,

Ya absolutely you have guessed correct. I am working on LPC3250 embedded board. I did not found apt-get and some commands in busy box also. I want to install some software using apt-get command.is there any other command to install software?

Thanks & regards,
Md.Biyabani.

Hi,

ohh, so you're running some embedded system. If it is running Linux and other free software, then they must also provide the build system (to comply with the gpl). Is this the web site: http://embeddedartists.com/products/oem/lpc3250_oem.php ? If so check the support pages including the FAQ.
