Hello, <br />
<br />
I'm using a plug sever distribution of debian, and I want to be able to install gnome, so that I can then install vnc.<br />
<br />
The plug server only has 512 MB of internal storage so I need to use the external usb flash drive to store the files &amp;&nbsp;have mounted this as /usb<br />
<br />
How do I change the default settings so that /usb/apt becomes the default folder rather than /var/cache etc etc <br />
<br />
New to Linux so a little confused! - plus I've got to do everything through SSH at the moment. <br />
<br />
Thanks <br />

Linux is a UNIX-like open source operating system with hundreds of distinct distributions, including: Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, Debian, Slackware, Gentoo, CentOS, and Arch Linux. Linux is generally associated with web and database servers, but has become popular in many niche industries and applications.

Linux

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).
