SLES10 autoyast sometimes asks for CD1 after packages have been installed
Hi there, We install our SLES10 on FSC RX 200 S3 systems from the original DVD using autoyast 2 with an configuration xml file. Sometimes, after the packages have been installed and the server has rebooted suddenly yast asks for CD 1 and stops. It wants to install a package whose name we cannot determine. The DVD is mounted on the device yast is looking for it, yet it doesn't find it. The only somewhat uncommon option we use is the boot parameter "insmod=ide-generic" because without it our dvd drive will not be recognized. Has anyone experienced this? Any ideas on where to look for a solution?

Please report it as a bug and attach full logs. See http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs/YaST on how to retrieve the logs.
The only somewhat uncommon option we use is the boot parameter "insmod=ide-generic" because without it our dvd drive will not be recognized.
This seems to be a hardware/driver issue where the kernel fails to fully recognize the DVD drive. Please attach /var/log/messages to the bug report.
Has anyone experienced this? Any ideas on where to look for a solution?
Did you try the 'failsafe' installation ? Klaus
