I installed SUSE 8.1. After the installation I could not mount CD or
DVD. I solved this problem as described in

http://sdb.suse.de/en/sdb/html/81_ide-scsi.html.

Later on I wanted to install further packages. However, "Install or
remove software" in YaST2 did not work, since the DVD pointed to the
wrong device (Why?!). Then I went to "Change source of installation",
deleted the DVD entry and wanted to create a new entry. However, YaST2
denied the creation of a new entry with

Error

Unable to create installation source
from URL 'dvd:///'.
Details:
ERROR(Media:mount failed)

Has anybody seen this before? How can I correctly configure the source
of installation (manually or in YaST2)?

thx
Adrian
