Rick, are you logged in as root? Question one...

Also, when you mount your cdrom, do you use the settings in fstab (by just type

i

ng "mount /cdrom" or something similar) or do you mount the cdrom "by hand" so t o speak?

By default, SuSE sets up the cdrom to NOT ALLOW executing programs and scripts ( such as install) from the cdrom.
