Hello, I hope you welcome questions like these.
I was wondering if it is possible to use apt-cdrom to add CD image files (e.g. woody-i386-1.iso) that are currently on a local hard drive, to the apt system? That way, I can have apt mount and retrieve files needed in these CD image files rather than downloading them from the net. I burn CDs and give them to my brother-in-law since he has dialup access, and I have faster internet access. As a result, I don't keep CDs, and I don't want the hassle of having to keep or insert the physical CDs, and I don't want to use up all my /dev/loop# devices to keep the images mounted. If not, is there another apt tool that will reference these CD image files into the apt system?? Thanks!
