    Has anyone else had troubles installing from the dvd?
    The computer booted fine, but when it got to the software proposal I got a no
    packages found / media error message.
    I ended up installing from the cd's and now i can't even change the source of
    installation to the dvd. Yast doesn't even check the dvd drive, only my cd
    burner.

    I can mount the dvd, and the packages are there, so I don't think it's a media
    problem.

    Here's the info from boot.msg for my dvd
    <4>hdd: JLMS DVD-ROM LTD-166S, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
    4>hdd: attached ide-cdrom driver.
    <6>hdd: ATAPI 48X DVD-ROM drive, 512kB Cache

    I have noticed that there isn't a hdd=ide-cd in grub anymore, is this no
    longer needed in 9.0?

    TIA
