Thanks, Brian, I commented out the entry in the sources.list file as you
proposed, but in my case it did not work. :-( Remember that I have a USB
stick with an DVD.iso, I do not have a real DVD

Then I took a closer look at the directory structure on the USB stick, and
look

Strange, is that the same on your Jessie DVD? I downloaded it from what
turned out to be a secondary mirror and I saved the download details.
Maybe I made a mistake in which directory I downloaded it...
I tried to adjust the sources.list but at the moment it hasn't worked. 

Thanks
Stephan
