Apt : adding etch CD's to lenny apt archive
Greetings,
I'm trying to add a debian 4.0 CD set to a debian 5.0 apt
archive using apt-cdrom but the system doesn't recognise the debian 4
CD's.
In the release notes for Debian 5.0 there's a section on problems with
reading etch cdroms on a lenny system. The suggestions were done but
the etch cd's were not read.
CD's from a sarge, debian 3.1, were recognised but failed to be added to
the archive for signature/key related reasons.
Below is the /etc/apt/sources.list file that is supposed to control
the apt archive access followed by the trace of an attempt to add a sarge
CD to the apt archive and lastly the trace of an attempt to add an etch CD
to the apt archive.

What is a method that works for reading previous debian release CD's
into the apt archive ? Any reference or ideas would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
