You mentioned this already on bug 692540, where I already left this
comment too:
You used xfce CD-1, and this never had the "scan additional CDs" dialog.
It is a single CD, not a CD from a bigger set. It's sort of a standalone CD.
It contains a rather complete xfce desktop. So why need more CDs?
If you need so much more other software, you should not use a CD for a
"light-weight desktop"!
If you use the i386-Binary-CD-1 (not xfce, but standard Desktop),
the dialog for scanning additional CDs is asked (tested with beta4).
IMO this bug can be closed.
