Unable to install new packages from my CD's after putting a new DVD+RW

Hi all,

Recently I have put two new drives, DVD+/-RW(Sony DRU-710A) and also a
DVD-ROM(Sony - lost the model no.). Previously I had a Samsung CD-R drive from
which I did the initial installation. After I changed to DVD drives, I tried to
install some packages from the 9.3 CD's. I put them in one of the drives and
tried to install. YaST was complaining that it couldn't find the packages.

I thought it was because of the entry CD:/// in the Installation sources. So I
tried to add a DVD source from the add entry. Then YaST says 'Unable to create
installation source from URL 'dvd:///' Media mount failed.

What could be the problem? Waiting for some ideas.

Thanks.
Chaitanya.
