There seems to be another problem with YaST2. When changing
installation media, from /dev/sr0 (cdrw) to a dvd, yast
tries to read cdrw. I have the DVD symlinked to /dev/dvd.

lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            8 2002-10-12 10:22
/dev/dvd -> /dev/hdc

I have created the directories /media/dvd and made the
appropriate sym links to /dvd. I know this has nothing to do
with yast, but I can mount the dvd and read it fine. I can
play movies using ogle. So I know that the DVD is working
perfectly. The DVD is on ide1 and the CDRW is on ide0. I
also have added the modules ide-cd cdrom to the boot
process.

ide-cd                 28388   0 
cdrom                  26400   0  [sr_mod ide-cd]
ide-scsi                7920   0 

I have no clue on how to get yast to look at ide1???

Hope this message is clear. I have been a lurker on this
list for years, and have been running Linux since 95. I
don't always explain things in a clear manner, I write
rather strangely I have been told :)
