There are some possibilities. The easiest one is to download the Edgy
server CD [1], insert it on the Edgy installation, say 'yes' to the
question that pops up whether you want to open the package manager for
it, and select it there. Everything will be installed from the CD
then.

Alternatively, use 'sudo apt-get install postgresql-8.1' to display
the list of necessary dependencies and download them from a computer
with network. You need to get the right versions, of course, so please
use 'apt-cache show <package>' to see which one you need.
