offline installation on ubuntu
-
Hi
I have a ubuntu laptop but no internet available on that laptop because both the ethernet and wifi are broken on the laptop.
Also I don't want to buy a usb wifi card.
It's an old laptop but working perfectly except the internet connections.So I still want to install retropie on this ubuntu but can somebody tell if this is possible when being offline?
So i'm talking about this setup
https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Debian/
I do have another laptop on which I can download things.
However it's a windows 10 laptop.Does anybody know a way to download the needed files of retropie and copy them to my ubuntu laptop using usb stick and then install those offline?
Is this possible and how to do this?
Thx

@pygamegirl The PC installation needs an internet connection to download RetroPie and the source of various programs needed (emulators/front-end/etc.).
If you're looking for an offline install, you can try other retro-gaming projects like Lakka, Recalbox or Batocera, I think they include everything in their image and don't need an internet connection to complete an installation.
