Hi, I am trying to install Ubuntu to a computer with out an Internet connection and I need a way to get the updates on it. So I have a two part question how do I backup or save the updates I normally get from the update manager to a file or disk and how do I install them on the computer without the internet connection?
Thanks.

The .deb files that are downloaded while you install new applications are usually saved in the /var/cache/apt/archives directory.I believe its the same with the updates. You can copy them to your second machine .
