<cjwatson>  /* This is a simple algorithm that should always work, we stat the 
mount point
<cjwatson>     and the '..' file in the mount point and see if they are on the 
same device.
<cjwatson>     By definition if they are the same then it is not mounted. This 
should
<cjwatson>     account for symlinked mount points as well. */
<cjwatson> if /cdrom is bind-mounted from the same device then that algorithm 
would fail
<cjwatson> though I don't see why a symlink to something on the same device 
would be any better
<cjwatson> so, while this looks like a plausible guess, it could do with some 
verification
<cjwatson> oh, hmm now, apt is running in the live CD root filesystem not in 
/target
<cjwatson> maybe it just needs to be configured to use /target/cdrom
<cjwatson> you might try something like http://paste.ubuntu.com/23063/
<cjwatson> I'm not entirely sure that will work but it makes a twisted kind of 
sense
