I would like to purchase the possiblity of octave-forge packages.
The main problem of this issue is the drive letter cd-rom 

As an expreriment,
I copied intalled octave-2.9.13 (C:\Programs\octave-2.9.13) to the external USB 
HDD
(E:\Programs\octave-2.9.13).

After copy, 
octave:1>pkg uninstall all
octave:2> pkg list
no packages installed.
octave:3> pkg prefix E:\Programs\Octave-2.9.13\share\octave\packages
ans = E:\Programs\Octave-2.9.13\share\octave\packages
octave:4> pkg rebuild linear-algebra
octave:5> pkg list
Package Name    | Version | Installation directory
----------------+---------+-----------------------
linear-algebra  |   1.0.1 | 
E:\Programs\Octave-2.9.13\share\octave\packages\linear-algebra-1.0.1
octave:6> pkg load linear-algebra
octave:7> pkg list
Package Name    | Version | Installation directory
----------------+---------+-----------------------
linear-algebra *|   1.0.1 | 
E:\Programs\Octave-2.9.13\share\octave\packages\linear-algebra-1.0.1

I cannot know whether this will be successful on CD-ROM.

I recommend you to do expreriment by yourself on CD-ROM.
If it will be successful, an octave-forge reinstall m script can be written.
If user allow the least installing  script space in the HDD, perhaps 
automatical script will be
fullfilled.

It will be grateful if you will report here of your experiments.
