I followed the advice from Leah, and now it all works the instructions were as follows: Julia, What you probably need to do is set the correct sym-links fore /dev/cdrom1 and /dev/cdrom2 from the looks of things. If you do a "ls -al /dev/cdrom*" you can see what they are linked too. You should have something like this if it is set up correctly: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Jul 20 1999 /dev/cdrom1 -> hdc lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 Jul 20 1999 /dev/cdrom2 -> hdd If you do not have this yet, make the symlinks with these commands: cd /dev ln -sv hdc cdrom1 ln -sv hdd cdrom2 Then make another mount point for the burner like this: mkdir /burner Then change the fstab file so that the line: /dev/cdrom2 /cdrom auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0 Looks like this: /dev/cdrom2 /burner auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0 Let me know if that all makes sense.

Thank you - problem solved!
I have also had an email from Suse tech support saying they will answer my question and add it to the support database tomorrow (OK so you've already solved it, but it's good to know they care!)
