Uh! If you read in the dselect tutorial which is part of the Slink
installation documentation
<URL:http://www.debian.org/releases/slink/i386/ch-dselect-main.en.html>,
the multi_cd instructions there are quite different.
It instructs there (and this jibes with my recollection) that during
the update step, you install the different CDroms of the set in
series.
It was the apt-get method, if I recall correctly, which requires the
2nd CD to be inserted.
Am I wrong? Can you review the URL and let me know any errors in the
documentation?
