Hi,
I've just installed FC3t2. I now want to install some additional packages. So I've opened the Add/Remove Programs window, selected my new packages and clicked Update. I then got a message telling me to insert Disc 1 which I've done and I then get the error "Unable to access disk.".
(The CD auto mounts, is readable and I did a media check before installation, it was fine).
Has anyone encountered this?
There seems to be some Bugzilla issues for FC2 test releases but not FC3.
Leon...
Yes,
Two clean installs with exactly the same result. Depending on the update requested, disc 1 or 2 were requested. Both fail. The CDs also passed the media check before install. When I insert the CD as requested, the CD mounts and the desktop Icon can access the CD, but up2date still doesn't know it's there.

Thanks for your reply Roger.
I've added this as Bug #133657.

There is already a newer version of s-c-packages avaible in the fedora core development tree. As a rule, before filing a bug report against a component in a test release, first look to see if a newer version is available in the development tree which might fix this problem. Please install system-config-packages-1.2.17-1 and retest.
Note thate system-config-packages-1.2.17-1 has a packaging bug and you must install dbus-python package first and have the haldaemon service running or it will segfault. 1.2.17 is the first version to use hal for cd device discovery so what you are seeing in 1.2.16 might not apply any longer considering the change to 1.2.17. So retest the new version and update the bugreport accordingly.

Thanks Jeff,
I wasn't aware of the development tree but will test against this in future.
For the record, I've updated system-config-packages and get the same problem with 1.2.17.
