when installing from a usb stick created by just copying the iso to the
raw device as described in manual section [4.3], from a weekly image
generated 2012-11-18, the sources.list file reads like this:

> # deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux testing _Wheezy_ - Official Snapshot amd64 CD 
> Binary-1 20121113-01:23]/ wheezy main
> 
> deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux testing _Wheezy_ - Official Snapshot amd64 CD 
> Binary-1 20121113-01:23]/ wheezy main

(among other lines). when the system starts up and the usb stick is left
plugged in, it is not discovered as a cdrom, though. (no wonder -- it
isn't one).

this is similar to bug #652987, but i don't know if its solution can
apply, as it refers to live system installations.

maybe instead of checking whether to disable the cd line, it could be
checked if an archive cd can be discovered (at install time), and only
then the line will be included?

If you look at the installer's log, you'll see that what happens during
installation was actually using that cdrom: source though. (Real CD or
DVD vs. image copied onto USB doesn't make a difference here, the ISO
ends up being mounted under /cdrom.)

The netinst approach was extended to full CDs in:
