boot with the 9.10 live cd
start synaptic, search for gnome-ppp select install (even if you don't
have internet access), in the file-menu select create skript to download
packages.
This creates a script which uses wget to download all necessary packages
including dependencies. execute this script on a pc which has a internet
connection and wget installed (e.g. any linux pc).
use a thumb-drive or any other storage device to transfer the downloaded
packages to your pc. --> you are now ready to install ubuntu karmic.
Wish you luck
Franz
