7. apt-get update
Done!
You can do apt-get install <package name> Without internet connection no worries about dependency and stuff.
I think he wants to install all packages at once and not one by one.

To get rid of errors because of missing dependencies just run this command until no errors occur any more
Code:
dpkg --configure -a

but its impossible without knowing their dependencies... Unless you did a apt-get --download-only

Of all the solutions here, Radicalz38's gets my vote as it will handle all the dependencies well.

Amusing how we got so many ways to do the same thing - that's Linux for you :)

how to download dpkg-dev??

i tried apt-get it gives me this

shell enabled


BusyBox v1.10.2 (Debian 3:1.10.2.legal-1osso30+0m5) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

/home/user # apt-get install dpkg-dev
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package dpkg-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package dpkg-dev has no installation candidate
/home/user #

you can do the following :

sudo gainroot
cd </path/to/files/>
dpkg -i ./*
apt-get -yf install
dpkg -i ./*

you need to be connected to the internet for apt-get to fetch dependencies.

it worked perfectly and all the .debs installed and visible but i did only

sudo gainroot
cd </path/to/files/>
dpkg -i ./*

not

apt-get -yf install
dpkg -i ./*

Do i need to do ?

apt-get -yf install
dpkg -i ./*
and why?

wireless-tools
hildon-desktop
