Asks for CD continually even if CD in drive

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040422 Description of problem: I am using test3 with all my packages updated. Whenever I try to use the add/remove applications program it tells me I need to insert a CD. After I insert the CD and click ok it still does not detect the CD, even though the CD icon and name appear on the desktop. Reclicking ok does not solve the problem and it continues to ask again and again for the CD until I cancel. I have tried both CD-ROM drives and I checked my .discinfo and this is what i get Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-packages-1.2.12-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Add/Remove applications from what in windows is called the 'start' menu. 2. Choose KDE packages or other multi-cd package 3. If you have the first CD already in the drive that CD will work fine, but when asking you for the next CD it doesn't detect it. Also if you have no CD in the drive at the time it will not detect it. 4. It appears that even after cancelling it "thinks" that the packages have been installed OK. Expected Results: It should have detected the CD-ROM being in the CD drive. I have two drives and it doesn't detect it in either one. Additional info:
Same problem using FC3test3 DVD. Installer asking me for CD2, CD4,...until I click cancel. My DVD is in drive, but installer asking me for CDs.
I wanted to throw my 2 cents in on this. I am also having the same issue. I burnt all 4 CD's using Nero (16x speed, Finalized, DAO) and all of them are readable under windows. I install and when it is putting openoffice.org files onto the hard drive it wants CD 2. I put it in and it tells me the wrong Cd is in the drive. If I had hair, I would be pulling it out now :). using FC3Test3 (trying to use) I don't think the drive is the issue (tried a cd burner and DVD drive). I am using a Epox board with a NForce2 controller, AMD Athlon XP 2400+ and 512 Megs of RAM.
Sounds like a duplicate of #124033
This should be fixed in newer ereleases
