I have a similar problem, but I fixed the ide-scsi stuff. I
cannot get YaST to see my DVD at all. The system will boot
off the DVD, I can mount and read DVD's, I can play DVD
movies, but YaST will not see the DVD which is on ide1. If I
change the source of installation from
/dev/cdrom--->/dev/sr0 to /dev/dvd it still tries to read
the cdrw which is on ide0. I have entries in fstab:

/dev/cdrecorder /media/cdrecorder auto
ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0
/dev/cdrom /media/cdrom auto ro,noauto,user,exec
0 0
/dev/dvd /media/dvd auto ro,noauto,user,exec
0 0

I have all the appropriate links:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Jun 17 12:01
/dev/cdrecorder -> /dev/sr0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Oct 11 11:03
/dev/cdrom -> /dev/sr0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Oct 15 22:48
/dev/dvd -> /dev/hdc

For some reason I cannot get YaST to look at ide1. Here is
/proc/ide:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Oct 17 23:01 hda
-> ide0/hda
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Oct 17 23:01 hdb
-> ide0/hdb
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Oct 17 23:01 hdc
-> ide1/hdc

Any help with this nagging problem would greatly be
appreciated. I would love to just use the DVD instead of
changing cd's....
