I had the same thing happen. During the install my DVD (/dev/hdc) was not SCSI 
emulated, but my CD-RW (/dev/hdd) was. I edited /etc/lilo.conf and /etc/fstab to 
include SCSI emulation for the DVD. The CD-RW was /dev/scd0 and the DVD became 
/dev/scd1. Thus the original install which had been from /dev/hdc was now pointing to 
/dev/scd0 or visa-versa...

I am confused... urpmi was confused... in the end it hurt my head to much and i 
stopped trying to work it out. Sounds like the same thing.
