    frustrated, live cd loads gcc needed for ndiswrapper fresh install doesn't

    Hi. I thought i fixed this issue once I figured out some apt get commands, However I didn't relize that the live usb loads a internal repo. I can't seem to get gcc installed on the installed for the life of me. Tried downloading files via another computer... some won't even install. I only have wifi at home otherwise this wouldn't be a problem. tried installing repos from cd cant seem to see cd. I'm sure I'm missing something a command to access the live usb repos maybe? any thoughs? thanks in advance, Mayu
    Ps. the computer is a dell dimension 2400 1.5ghz 756mb ram and my wifi usb adaptor is a netgear wna 3100

        there are no extra packages on the cd only what you have when you boot the disk .

            so if you do in a terminal
            Code:
            sudo apt-get install gcc
            what error do you get ?

                if i remeber correctly it trys to look online for the repo which it can't do becuase I can't install my wifi adaptor. hang on gonna switch this machine over to kubuntu now and I'll post from my laptop.
