I was confused by this as well at first. However, if you mount the cdrom and do 'ls -l dists', you get -r--r--r-- 1 root root 314 Dec 19 01:33 TRANS.TBL lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 5 Dec 19 00:13 frozen -> woody dr-xr-xr-x 3 root root 2048 Dec 19 00:14 potato lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 5 Dec 19 00:13 stable -> woody lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 5 Dec 19 00:13 testing -> woody lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 5 Dec 19 00:13 unstable -> woody dr-xr-xr-x 5 root root 2048 Dec 19 00:20 woody
So stable, testing and unstable are all symlinks to woody, so in effect they are all stable. Still, it would be nice if someone would fix apt-cdrom to do the more logical thing. You could file a bug on apt-cdrom with severity 'minor' (check first if someone else has not allready filed one). P.S. Don't change the lines in sources.list as the CDROM will not be recognized after you do that :-( Good luck.
