Re: [Trinux-talk] newbie to trinux

Jim,

I am new to this as well but very happy so far.
I am using the cdrom version and have the
basic packages already installed. I did pull
in a few additional ones and used "getpkg <name>"
to both retrieve and install it over the network.
Since the package is installed on ramdisk, I am
not sure if you want to dl and install all the packages.
In my case, I ran out of space on one of the packages.
I guess I need to remove something to install more.
If you are storing the packages on a disk, then I guess
you would just go to the DL site (mirror) and get them that
way. I am not sure what command you would use to get it
installed from a partition or floppy. Still learning
...
