I made a lot of digging and discovered that udev (?) creates names for the cd and dvd units and that these names are stored in the folder /dev/cdrom which conflicts with the sr2 symbolic link !!!
Yes, I reported that here a few days back.
I didn't find how to change onr of these two conflicting names.
Here: "/etc/udev/rules.d/20-cdrom.rules".
# cdrom links generated by YaST2 # BUS="ide", ID="1.0", SYSFS{removable}="1", SYMLINK="dvdrecorder dvdram dvd" BUS="ide", ID="1.1", SYSFS{removable}="1", SYMLINK="cdrecorder cdrom"
There are set the symlinks it will apply on boot. I changed those definitions for my system.
I did so too, in order not to use cdrom, BUT at boot udev (?) always need the folder cdrom, and aat boot yast (?) changes the permissions of thaat folder (as if it were a link !) and udev is not able to write in it !!!
PS: I temporarily got cdrom to work by destroying the cdrom folder and recreating the link, I get error messages since udev is not able to record the names created but it works.
I don't know about the folder, that's new to me.
It is there only with 9.3 - Have a look in /dev Thanks for reply, I requested installation assistance and hope a reply. Michel.
