I have added these line to the /etc/apt source file

# deb file:///media/iso1/ karmic main multiverse restricted universe
# deb file:///media/iso2/ karmic main multiverse restricted universe
# deb file:///media/iso3/ karmic main multiverse restricted universe
# deb file:///media/iso4/ karmic main multiverse restricted universe
# deb file:///media/iso5/ karmic main multiverse restricted universe
# deb file:///media/iso6/ karmic main multiverse restricted universe
# deb file:///media/iso7/ karmic main multiverse restricted universe

remove #  and change the distro name karmic with which ever you have
this is worked in ubuntu 9.10
and then create folders for mounting the image in /media i used 'iso1,iso2
etc'
mount these images in corresponding folders using the command
sudo mount -t iso9660 -o loop dvd_file.iso /media/iso1
here dvd_file.iso can change with your iso file name
and go to synaptic and reload the repository index
