David, Tried that but without success. Even used the dvd with Suse 10.3 which came up nice with the installation menu. From there to the grub menu and still no sign of the cd/dvd rom. Modprobe and rchal restart give back a cdrom but I have not yet been able to make use of it. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
