Hello everyone: I'm running SuSE 9.3 / 64-bit mode on an AMD 64 laptop. The laptop has a combination CD reader / writer and a DVD reader only. If I'm doing a fresh install, the machine will correctly boot from the DVD and I can do the install. The machine can also boot from a CD and successfully mount both music and data CDs and also burn CDs (this machine will not burn a DVD nor am I trying to do this). The problem is when I'm trying to install additional programs from the DVD with YAST. I identify the program(s), insert the SuSE 9.3 DVD 1 and then the machine repeatedly keeps asking me to insert DVD 1 on /dev/hdc (which is already in the drive!!!!!). When burning CDs, the machine asks for a blank media and clearly shows the CD/DVD as /dev/hdc. In the 'fstab' file, the CD is shown as /dev/cdrecorder /media/cdrecorder subfs noauto,fs=cdfss, ro, procid,nosuid,nodev,exec,iocharset=utf8 0 0 In the SuSE suppoert database, there is an entry suggesting a manual 'mount' [auto] instead of the automatic [subfs] mount (fstab entry from SuSE knowledge database shown below) /dev/dvd /media/dvd auto ro,noauto,user,exec,iocharset=utf8 0 0 Any ideas greatly appreciated as I'm not sure what I'm doing or not doing Cheers, Mike
