I'M trying to install make on my CLI Debian installtion. I'M having a few problems. When I type apt-get install make from su it tells me to insert a CD and press ENTER. I just figured it would get it from the internet. After I place the CD I used to install Debing with I start getting a lot of errors that say something like:

0%[working] I/O error on dev sr0 logical block ########## sector ##########

What am I doing wrong here? Thanks

Install the gnu compiler tools. Make will come with that. Most installations of Ubuntu/Debian already include the GNU compiler suite, including make/gmake. If you need some other make, such as cmake, then you will need to install that package specifically. So, let me ask, just what are you trying to do?
