Mandriva Linux One

[Exsecrabilus]

In Ubuntu, if you don't have Internet, you can get packages by going to: http://packages.ubuntu.com/

Is there something like this in Mandriva Linux One? Thanks for the help. :D

well if you don't have internet how do you access http://packages.ubuntu.com/?
and yes, mandriva one has the package manager configured to download and install packages from the repos, just like synaptic (besides the various apps that come with the livecd)

[Exsecrabilus]

You misunderstood.

If I don't have Internet on my Ubuntu computer, all I need to do is go onto a computer at my school, go to http://packages.ubuntu.com/ and download a .deb package.

Is there something like that for Mandriva Linux?

I see now...
maybe this will help:

Thanks so much, you = winner.

you're welcome. I've installed Mandriva One 2008.1 from the livecd a week ago and I'm very pleased with it :). hope you'll experience the same positive experience

there is also RPM search at Pbone too:
RPM search (http://rpm.pbone.net/)
It has RPMS for many distributions listed.

I wouldn't recommend either of those sites. Sophie is better:
