install build essential package..

Asked by joaopastor

I'm new to ubuntu, and i need to have the build essential library. The command apt-get install build-essential doesn't work because a don't have a connection to the internet. I'm trying to install build essencial from the Ubuntu CD, the problem comes here:
On Synaptic Package Manager I do "add CD", insert the ubunto CD, and i receive a message saying "failed to mount drive E:" but on the other hand i can browse the content of the cd (when the cd is inserted an icon appears on the desktop), so the cd is already mounted i guess.
HELP
Thanks

You can launch a terminal and type the following: 'sudo apt-get install build-essential' with the cd inserted.
