EMFBI, but wouldn't it be easier to use apt-cdrom to add the dvd as a
source for later installs rather than an apt-mirror solution & a
loopback mount? Seems to be more work than needed. OTOH when I had a
cd-less system and Mandrake, I had all available ISOs loopback mounted
for exactly that purpose - although each ISO was still listed as a cdrom
source, rather than a mirror source per se.

Maybe me not understand, but thing is I don't have them burned yet. I
think there's some bug in apt-mirror, and having lost interest decided
to modify debmirror to only download deb-src stuff.

note: I tried apt-mirror only because it allows deb-src-only downloads.
