Hello, After having installed ide-scsi emulation for my CD reader/writer, I cannot use YaST2 anymore for adding/removing software. Normal mounting/unmounting of the drive and burning works fine ! I am rather sure that this is the same problem as described in the SuSE SDB document "Package installation from the CD with YaST2 not possible", i.e. that because my CD-drive has changed from hdc into sr0, it is not recognized by YaST anymore. However, the solution as given in that document does not work on my system. The document is written for Version 8.0, but I am using 7.3 After having given the command "hwscan --cdrom", I get the return message : "Segmentation Fault", and Yast2 still cannot access the CD-ROM drive. Does anybody know what I should do in Version 7.3 ? (I have searched
That's a known problem. Look at this support db article :

SDB and this mail-list, but found no solution. Thanks in advance,
PS, I tried changing manually the file at /var/lib/hardware, by modifying hdc into sr0 in that file, but that had no result either.
Do you have a "change source of installation" option in the YaST>Software section? If so, then you should be able to set the new location there.
Yes, I have such section, but that also doesn't work anymore. When I click it, I get the appropriate window, which however disappears after one or two seconds, without me being able to do anything ! ------------------------------ Jan Elders Nuenen the Netherlands -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com OGUZ EREN YAPI VE KREDI BANKASI A.S. / TEKNOLOJI YONETIMI Tel : 262 647 21 29 Fax : 262 647 17 12 www.ykteknoloji.com ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Bu mesajda, yalnizca muhatabini ilgilendiren, kisiye veya kuruma ozel bilgiler yer aliyor olabilir.
