Installation source: Packages cannot be found on medium


I just setup a Open Suse 10.1 computer. After i was done i removed the dvd drive. so what i did was changed the installation source to the iso of the dvd install(after mounting it to a folder). now whenever i try to install cedega or any other rpm i will get this error "Following packages haven't been found on the medium: (name of package i want to install)" Not sure if removing the drive and changing the source was the source of the problem however because i didn't try to install a rpm before that. Only thing i can think of though.

Using the command does work. However i just wanted to see if there was a way to fix that annoyance when using yast to install it.
