[mdlug] Finding CD-ROM

[David Lane]

The CD/DVD rom is IDE but the HD is SATA and the mother board is and off brand.
   
  I may have to get MSI or ASUS.

I don't know about Suse 10.1, but Opensuse 10.2 installs fine from a
sata DVD drive. It might be the newer kernel, or it might be a different
motherboard. Getting the newer version couldn't hurt.

I take it you mean that the installer starts up, but the install fails
because it can't find the packages, etc on the disk?
