I'm finding my way slowly with Ubuntu Server, now I have a minor problem with apt-get. It wants me to put the Ubuntu Server CD into the machine which, since it's in the garage, is a bit of a pain.
Can I force it *not* to use the CD but to always got to the internet to download packages I want to install? If so, how?
No idea about Ubuntu, but for Debian you'd edit /etc/apt/sources.list to only have references to the internet URLs rather than anything pointing to the CD. I'd be very surprised if Ubuntu have deviated from that.
Thanks, that would appear to be exactly what Ubuntu does.
