Another possibility is to do:

And then repeat the above with /media/cdrom changed to /tmp/dvd-mount-point.
What you write above gives me access to the DVD media ?
At least I have access to my 11.0 DVD media now
Could I ask you to show me the "repeat" part ?. Why is it necessary to do the repeat for the cdrom ?
I don't think so, it is just a name.
I wonder why I have the
Error 15: File not found
You should explain when and where you get that message. I can guess it is a grub message, when you try to boot. Then, on "info grub" you get the info: ] 15 : File not found ] This error is returned if the specified file name cannot be found, ] but everything else (like the disk/partition info) is OK. It probably means that the kernel image or the initrd image are not there; either they are not there (not installed), or the name is typed incorrectly in grub menu. Guessing again, grub menu is pointing to the last updated kernel image, whereas if you restored the kernel from the dvd, you have an older version. You have to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst, find the entry you use, something like: ###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name: linux### title openSUSE 11.1 - 2.6.27.7-4 root (hd0,7) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.27.7-4-pae root=/dev/disk/by-label/160_test resume=/dev/disk/by-label/320_swap splash=silent showopts vga=0x317 initrd /initrd-2.6.27.7-4-pae replace (mutandis mutandi) /vmlinuz-2.6.27.7-4-pae with /vmlinuz, and /initrd-2.6.27.7-4-pae with /initrd. Should work.
Before the culprit has been found there's no chance to boot normal.
What say Mads.
I can also wait for the 11.1, as I can access this HDD, and copy the /home to the new HDD I'll use for 11.1
Next time, when you uninstall anything, think twice, and have a real hard look at what is going to be uninstalled. Don't just press "enter, enter, enter". This is not windows! - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
