I see. I thought apt-get update would actually warn about the missing
keys; maybe I was wrong.

You could try looking for the Release.gpg file in your CD and trying
out this:

gpg --verify Release.gpg Release

That would tell you the keys which were used to sign the files. For
instance:

gpg: Signature made Sat 04 Sep 2010 12:30:28 PM CDT using RSA key ID 55BE302B
gpg: Can't check signature: public key not found
gpg: Signature made Sat 04 Sep 2010 12:37:54 PM CDT using DSA key ID F42584E6
gpg: Can't check signature: public key not found

Please let me know if this helps.
