Does not look much like an m68k problem, but nevertheless.

I don't think you should pass the device directly to apt. If you install
from CD is usally proposes the right thing, so just press return. If not,
try /cdrom (should exist after the installation, if not, add this to
/etc/fstab:
/dev/scd0 /cdrom iso9660 user,noauto,norock 0 0
You could probably also go without the norock option).
I have no Debian CD here, but AFAIR if you have a correct entry in fstab,
the installer will use it. Try apt-cdrom to add more CD-roms. Maybe you
could show us your /etc/apt/sources.list? Should be possible to fix your
problem just by editing this file.
Aren't the sr devices phasing out? If you have only one CD drive, you
usually have a link: /dev/cdrom -> /dev/scd0
Plus on my system /dev/sr0 -> scd0
probably for backwards compatibility.
