Hi all,

few days ago I downloaded the ".ISO" dvd imagees (from the official web site of Debian) and store them on an USB-HDD.
I burned only the first DVD in order to install the basic Debian on a PC at home ( where I do not have any net connection ).

And now, I want to install more softwares on my home PC using USB-HDD (where are stored all .iso files ) without burning the remaining DVDs.
Any help is well come

best regards

you should of installed the packages you wanted during the installation process. however, the only way that you can install the packages now is to extract them from the .iso file (Google around for help) or through the internet.
