As I did with previous version that worked ok using YaST1, I copied all the 
cds into th esame directory using cp * /hda11/suse8.0 -Rv
You have to copy the CDs into separate directories named CD1, CD2 etc.
*and* you have to use 'cp -a' to really get everything you need
copied.

Create directories:

for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7; do
   mkdir -p /hda11/suse8.0/CD$1
done

And then for each CD

 mount /dev/cdrom /mnt
 cd /mnt
 cp -a . /hda11/CD1
 cd /
 umount /dev/cdrom

of course changing CD1 to match the CD you're copying.
