I premise that I'm a total noob about linux

What I whont to archive is to use a Pi board as stan a lone Light and audio show player ( for a installation inside a mall)
i've created the show inside my w10 laptop and i've transferred my workspace through web interface inside the Pi.
Obiously audio file are missing so i need to manually re build references so I whant to be able to load this file inside the sd card
what i thought to do is to attach a pen drive then move file from there to sd
i've run command sudo apt-get install usb mount but it returns
"E: unable to locate package usbmount"
according to PDF i've tried to run
sudo apt-get update command but it returns "unable to resolve host *******(hostname)
what i did wrong?
thanks in advance

It can't find a nameserver (DNS server).
Check your network-settings // DHCP client settings // DHCP server
All electric machines work on smoke... when the smoke escapes... they don't work anymore

i've solved, thanks to a beer offered to a friend.

i'm on the latest version of qlc+ 4.11.1 and to allow to install package needed to see usb drives i sended those commands

Code: Select all

sudo -i
echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" > /etc/resolv.conf
echo "nameserver 8.8.4.4" >> /etc/resolv.conf
echo "nameserver 208.67.222.222" >> /etc/resolv.conf
echo "nameserver 208.67.220.220" >> /etc/resolv.conf
cat etc/resolv.conf
exit
now i got some other problems but for this i start a brand new thread
