I'm trying to upgrade wheezy to testing.
I am following the instructions at:

I get this error when I try apt-update:
W: Failed to fetch cdrom://[Debian GNU/Linux 7 _Wheezy_ - Official
Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary
20150114-03:58]/dists/testing/main/binary-amd64/Packages  Please use
apt-cdrom to make this CD-ROM recognized by APT. apt-get update cannot
be used to add new CD-ROMs
Does anyone know why?

Because the package manager ("Apt", possibly others) is complaining that it can't find packages:

    https://wiki.debian.org/Apt

    https://wiki.debian.org/SourcesList


This is a helpful utility for generating a sources.list file:

But if goal is to install Debian Jessie amd64, I'd download the latest Jessie amd64 netinst weekly build and use that:


cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/weekly-builds/amd64/iso-cd/debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso
