That book explains on page 73 that: ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== 3.6.4 APT setup select install media. insert the CD-ROM, choose [cdrom] in the menu, then press Enter. (Fig 3.59, select install media) If CDROM is not detected, then specify the device. Usually you can use the default by pressing just [Enter]. (Fig 3.60, choose CD-ROM device) Then, the package list in that CDROMs are updated. After finising that, it will prompt if package lists in other CDROMs should be updated. Now switch the CDROM and try this again. Do 3 times (i.e. update package list for each CDROM). If you can't do update the list, then try the second CDROM first. ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== ===== I can't remember details, but it should work. -- Taketoshi Sano: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
