Is there a particular reason why you don't want to use apt-cdrom to
use the CD repositories? It is much easier than mounting the CD to use
it.

In any case, to fix the error you get, you have to identify the GPG
key corresponding to the CD, and obtain it (preferably in a trusted
manner), and do

sudo apt-ket add - < key

Again, if apt-cdrom works, I would personally prefer that.

Thanks.
