I am currently using the Creative Lab Encore 5x Dxr2 on my Suse 7.0 system. It reads the Suse DVD and cdroms. emanon <charles.randle@gte.net> on 01/23/2001 02:39:24 PM To: Terry Eck <eck@raytheon.com>, SLE <suse-linux-e@suse.com> cc: (bcc: Steven D.

I currently have a cdrom which I would like to replace with a DVD drive. Questions: 1) What are some of the better dvd drives wrt Linux? Will just about any drive work? 2) Will the DVD drive also operate as a normal cdrom drive? Looking forward to installing SuSE using a single disk. Thanks, Terry
