I have incorporated Neal Walfield's apt into the CD. It installed nicely directly after the install of the tarball and initial setup. It worked with the first cdrom. However, like most modern Debian installation tools, it is fussy about dependencies and exits. IMHO this should be in alpha.gnu.org.
One problem. How does one unlock the cdrom-drive? Is there a HURDish package that should be installed? The only way the second CD could be scanned would be by rebooting - I did not do this as I would not be able to change discs because of the locked drive. dselect seems to be much happier afer running apt-get upgrade & apt-get dist-upgrade.
