Dselect & script



Try the "mountable" option in dselect (see package dpkg-mountable).
It keeps a transcript (in /var somewhere?  check the docs).  Also
don't be confused: each of the options (CD-ROM, mounted, mountable,
nfs, etc.) is like a separate program and only bears vague relation to
the location of the Debian packages and how they're to be accessed.
The mountable option can do mounted file systems, CD-ROMs, etc., and
in my opinion, it's a whole lot better because it does not go through
EVERY package every time you load something.  Also, it loaded from
non-free and contrib directories off my hard disk, where the "mounted"
option would not.
