To summarize:
I effectively _HAVE_ the contents of a relevant repository
on 8 physically discrete DVDs.
I *REQUIRE* that content to reside on a single partition of
a single disk in a form acceptable to apt-get.
For reasons I'll not go into, any solution requiring
networking of any form is irrelevant.
The thread below looks edifying for a simple solution to your
difficulties, if I'm understanding them correctly (it consists of
copying the dvds to disc as "iso" files and using apt-cdrom to create
sources accessible by apt-get).
