Hello all, I just recently installed the newest version of debian(testing) and everytime I go to use "apt-get", it confirms how much disk space will be taken up after unpacking, then I get the following:

Media change: please insert the disc labeled
'Debian GNU/Linux testing _Etch_ - Official Snapshot i386 Binary-1 (20060810)'
in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter

Where do I get this CD, and why haven't I ever needed it before with Debian?


Thanks

you'll probably also want to add contrib and non-free to your sources list. Also the debian-multimedia is a good one to have. Here's my sources list:
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ etch main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ etch main contrib non-free

deb http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ etch/updates main
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org/ etch main
