hello :))

I have problems with the WiFi adapter on my new pc, and in order to troubleshoot I need to use some utils that are not on already on the computer.

is it possible to just copy the binaries from a computer with internet connection onto a usb drive and move them over that way ?

And in that case, how do I make sure to also copy all the dependencies ?

or is there a smarter way do to it all together ? 😅

I hope this is the right community for this question :)) I couldn’t find any community specifically for Linux tech support.

    Alternatively, you can use you phone to USB-tether? Or if you’re on NixOS or Guix, where binaries stop working, you can build a custom ISO image with the necessarily tools already available.
