You don't happen to have that many cdrom drives on machines connected to your
network, do you? You could export the cdrom drives, and then point apt at
each of them.
The other thing which may be more appropriate, would be to look at packages
like apt-zip, which is designed for apt-getting software when the machine
isn't on a network (but should apply to your situation too).

That's nothing! If you play it forward, it'll install Windows 2000.
