| offline software installationForum: Other Help Topics Topic: offline software installation started by: steve196  Posted by steve196 on Mar. 09 2007,09:32 I have dsl on a laptop without an internet connection. I want to install some software on it (above all, latex and lyx). The only way to get data to the laptop is, by burning a cd with packages and copying it from there. How do i install my software (especially latex) that way? Thanks!
