How can i install these packages on to my system

To manually install .deb packages you use the 'dpkg' command - try 'man dpkg'

Server OS's traditionally install very little - they expect you to
install only what you need rather than everything.

You might find 'tasksel' helpful - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tasksel
