[R] Installing R on Xandros 3.0

[Mohamed Abdolell]

[1] go to http://packages.debian.org/testing/math/ and download the essential
r-base  packages to your hard drive
[2] install downloaded files using xandros networks
       File --> Install DEB file ...
[3] once it's working install remaining packages from within R using 
       install.packages(pkgs, lib, CRAN = getOption("CRAN"),
               contriburl = contrib.url(CRAN),
               method, available = NULL, destdir = NULL,
               installWithVers = FALSE, dependencies = FALSE)
     you'll need to read the help file on this ... but you'll have to specify
