Doesn't do you much good now, but what I do, instead of removemedia is to
edit /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg and add an "ignore" line to each CD entry (I don't
like constantly being asked to insert a CD, I'd rather download). That way I
can restore them if I need to. Here's my entries from that config file, maybe
you can copy and paste (as root of course), and remove the ignore lines (and
edit the "/dev/hdc" lines if your CD drive is a different device):
Powerpack\ i586\ CD\ 1 removable://mnt/cdrom/i586/media/main {
hdlist: hdlist.Powerpack i586 CD 1.cz
ignore
key-ids: 70771ff3
removable: /dev/hdc
static
with_hdlist: media_info/hdlist.cz
}
Powerpack\ i586\ CD\ 2 removable://mnt/cdrom/i586/media/main2 {
hdlist: hdlist.Powerpack i586 CD 2.cz
ignore
key-ids: 70771ff3
removable: /dev/hdc
static
with_hdlist: media_info/hdlist.cz
}
Powerpack\ i586\ CD\ 3 removable://mnt/cdrom/i586/media/main3 {
hdlist: hdlist.Powerpack i586 CD 3.cz
ignore
key-ids: 70771ff3

Powerpack\ i586\ CD\ 6 removable://mnt/cdrom/i586/media/main6 {
