[Bug 948937] [NEW] Cannot add the install CDROM to apt sources

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

  Trying to add the installation CDROM to apt-sources failed with the
following error message:


# apt-cdrom add -d /media/TMP_Mount1

Using CD-ROM mount point /media/cdrom/
Identifying.. [f786c25bd8e5422d38fa6adc60888f06-2]
Scanning disc for index files..
Found 0 package indexes, 0 source indexes, 0 translation indexes and 0 signatures
W: Failed to mount '/dev/sr0' to '/media/cdrom/'
E: Unable to locate any package files, perhaps this is not a Debian Disc or the wrong architecture?


  The CDROM is the alternate install CDROM for Kubuntu 11.10.
  It was written to a USB key (partition /dev/sdf1) with Unetbootin and it was mounted manually to /media/TMP_Mount1

  Why does apt tries to mount /dev/sr0  ? Why does it ignore the path I
gave it with the option "-d" ?
