        make sure your cd-rom is in the repositories (it is by default i think) and turn all the other ones off if you dont have interweb. then you can use adept to install or just do sudo aptitude install build-essential in konsole

        this is all assuming it is included in the cd

          @someguyouknow: He could only use the CD installer as an offline repository IF the CD he used was the Alternate Install CD.

          I'm afraid that's the only way you could "correctly" get build-essential, which will install everything that you need to compile stuff. I say "correctly" because you may be able to download individual .deb packages, but chances are, you might miss some things that these packages depend on. apt-get (or Adept) resolves that for you, but you either need an internet connection or the Alternate Install CD to do that.
