Package: apt Version: 0.9.7.9+deb7u1 Hi,
I recently did an installation from a DVD. During the installation the biggest part of the time it's "retrieving" files. Most of the files are on the DVD, and it got security updates from internet. I have no idea what retrieving from a cdrom is supposed to be doing, but it seems to be reading all the files one by one, maybe checking it's hash sums or something like that? Why would it do that? So it send a lot of time seeking the cdrom from file to file, not yet installing anything. Then when all files where retrieved the installation started and the DVD player was actually not doing much for a while because most of the DVD was now in RAM. But as the installation continued it needed to start to read it from the DVD again. This all makes little sense to me.
