    I'm pretty newbie myself, but
    try adding cdrom to /etc/apt.sources
    and then dpkg in the apt-get to bring
    your system back up.

    Your posting went to usenet but not to
    the web archive:
    http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2004/debian-user-200401/author11.html

    You should post by sending email to the address debian-user@lists.debian.org
    .
