Since you can't reproduce normally, let me show you the log files from a successful run and a failed run. (At some point, if you are really curious about reproducing the bug, I can package up my VM, with the error case snapshotted.) attached files: y2log-doesntwork & y2log-works: the original logs. y2log-doesntwork-scrubbed & y2log-works-scrubbed: the same logs with certain PIDs and other things masked out so it's easier to use 'wdiff' or 'diff' on it.

Here is the actual disk layout: sda (hard disk on 'mptspi' driver) sr0 - actually IDE CD-ROM drive, controller 0, master (0:0) sr1 - actually IDE CD-ROM drive, controller 1, master (1:0) Could that make a difference?

I suppose YAST strips off the device part somewhere. YASTs pkg-bindings also report the URL without devicelist: Source_Create.cc(createManagedSource):174 Original URL: cd:///, product directory: / Libzypp definitely gets the cd: without device list and therefore probes: MediaCD.cc(MediaCD):87 MediaCD::MediaCD(cd:///, ) ...

Screenshot from comment #2 shows, IMO, that YaST (whichever level it means) was unable to find a product name on that CD and thus it assigned a uniquely generated hash to that repository. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

If it's missing YaST adds all detected CD devices to cd:// URL. Steffen, what's the difference between RepoURL and ZyppRepoURL?

No, because it's ?device_s_ for zypp. I've fixed ZyppRepoURL in Factory.

BTW, Joshua, the option is 'install=cd:/?device=sr1' (note: no 's').

Thanks - now, is this Factory a nightly snapshot sort of thing that I can try in order to validate the bugfix? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
