Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: synaptic
I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and I found that sometimes I could not
add my APTonCD in the repositories by Synaptic (0.63.1ubuntu6):
Situation #1:
1. Insert APTonCD to the CDROM
2. Then system will mount the CD automatically and "APTonCD colume detected"
dialog box is shown. At this time, you can choose "Cancel" or "Start package
manager" for the question "Would you like to open it with package manager?"
3. If I press "Start package manager" button, then I can find my CD in the
"Software Source --> Other software" page
Situation #2:
1. Insert APTonCD to the CDROM
2. Then system will mount the CD automatically and "APTonCD colume detected"
dialog box is shown. At this time, you can choose "Cancel" or "Start package
manager" for the question "Would you like to open it with package manager?"
3. Press "Cancel" button
4. Then start Synaptic Package Manager (System --> Administration --> Synaptic
Package Manager)
5. Goto "Other Software" page (Settings --> Repositories --> Other Software)
6. Press "Add CD-ROM" button and system will show "Please insert a disk in the
drive" dialog box.
7. Press "OK" button and then the error message "Error scanning the CD E:Failed
to mount the cdrom" will be appearred
Situation #3:

2. Then system will mount the CD automatically and "APTonCD colume detected"

4. Start "Terminal" and type "umount /media/APTonCD" to umount the CD
5. Then start Synaptic Package Manager ourselves (System --> Administration -->
Synaptic Package Manager)
6. Goto "Other Software" page (Settings --> Repositories --> Other Software)
7. Press "Add CD-ROM" button and system will show "Please insert a disk in the
drive" dialog box.
