I was amazed by the description that Debian is robust and reliable etc. So
I decided to install it. But when I try to install from terminal "Fix the
apt-get install error: “Media change: please insert the disc labeled ...”
appears. I can't also install software thru discover.

I really need help with these things.

Thank you!

The better mailing list for such requests is debian-user
(https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/) or a non-English version of it 
(https://lists.debian.org/users.html) if you prefer.

Debian-project is meant to discuss non-technical issues around the 
Debian project, e.g. organization or policy changes.

That said, you likely have a line starting with

deb cdrom: ...

in your /etc/apt/sources.list

comment that line out (as root) by prefixing it with a hash (#) mark:

# deb cdrom: ...

Save the file and that should fix things.

Kind regards,
Daniel

Look to me like a left over from installation.

Edit the file  /etc/apt/sources.list
