Could you cut-and-paste the exact error message, please, preferably with
a transcript of what you did to provoke it? Paraphrased explanations are
useful for context, but it turns out to be quite difficult to make out
what's going on from a paraphrase as opposed to just seeing the exact
text from your screen.

(I suspect, though, that you might not have run 'apt-cdrom add'.)

Cheers,
