    AptMove CD Creating?

    I was reading in the Ubuntu Unofficial guide for AptMove that I can creat a cd that has all the stuff I installed via apt-get on it from my internet connected comp so that I can install it on my comp that has no internet connection available, while I was preforming the steps as indicated in the guide I was not able to compleat some steps due to not having a Release.gpg key or not knowing how to make one, since I could not complete this step the rest of the operation failed.

    The link i was using is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptMoveHowto ,

    I followed the steps exactly I think all the way up to the release.gpg key , also how do I create the file ~/myapt.conf, all I did was in terminal open kwrite copy the stuff below the instructions and named it myapt.conf and saved it in the root dir, I think its right but I am still new to all this and am not sure.

    If anyone has a better or easier way of doing this operation it would be greatly appreciated.

    all I really want to do is download and install the mp3 codecs and engines for amarok on my non internet comp and also install Grip so I can rip audio cds into ogg and mp3 on the same comp.

    Thanks.

    install gpgkeys (using synaptic or apt-get) and you SHOULD be good to go

    pkgs on no internet pc

    You can copy deb pkgs you want to cd and then use that cd as pkg source. You(as root) will need to mount the cd, cd /mnt/cdrom then use dpkg -i install *.deb.
    Dont forget to unmount cdrom--cd / then umount /mnt/cdrom.
    Hope that helps.
