I don't do anything when this happens. There is no disc in the ODD.
There is a time of perhaps 10 seconds between the read error and
the third line (mount). From the 4 error lines, the first really
seems bogus/unwarranted. It seems that continuing without the disc
could be a bug highlighted by the read error.
This is a bashism in /etc/apt/apt-file.conf and you seem to have dash
as /bin/sh. Please try again with the following change: In the line
that starts with "cdrom =" change "read" into "read DUMMY" (without
the quotes).
That fixes.
Now it should wait for you to insert the cdrom. BTW, is
there actually a Contents*.gz on the cd?
I don't have the CD anymore, sorry.
BTW, the CD request is quite archaic; you get the message "Put CDROM
labeled [foo] in the cdrom device", even if it is already there, and
then you need to press enter, although this isn't indicated.
