CDRW detection question - SuSE 8.1

Hello! In order to install SuSE 8.1 on my desktop at home I had to add the line "hdd=cdrom", because my Acer 4x8x32 IDE CDRW would hang the installation. Once successfully installed, I go into the hardware browser utility in KDE and try to configure the CDRW drive. For some reason the system sees it twice, as a 4x8x32 CD-ROM and again as a 4x8x32 CDRW! How can I remove the entry for 4x8x32 CD-ROM, while keeping that of the CDRW? I already have a dedicated CD-ROM and it works fine... Thanks, MJR
