Clean y2log, showing a failed atempt to add a dvd source.

And when all drives fail then it should report a failure and yast will ask to eject a medium... Yes, in 10.2 libzypp checks only the first drive with a mountable media. If it doesn't find installation source on it, it will report a failure. You will probably not get the error if you put the installation DVD into the second drive (if it is a DVD drive). This problem is fixed since openSUSE 10.3 Alpha 3 plus |
Do this: 1. Click on YaST, "Installation Source". 2. Wait 3. Click on "Add", "DVD", "NEXT". You are now asked what drive to eject, instead select the drive that has a SUSE DVD. 4. Observe error message. "Unable to create installation source from URL 'dvd:///' Details: Unknown source type for dvd:/// Try Again {YES/NO}. 5. Get frustrated, swear, report bug. Be frustrated. It appears that in order to set a installation source of DVD, one must select CD in place of DVD above.
