OK, then. Try these commands and see if they solve it.
That should do it.Code:ln -sf /dev/scd0 /dev/sr0 ln -sf /dev/hdc /dev/cdrom

Hopefully SuSE 8.2 will have fixed this problem!

PROBLEM SOLVED!!!
While SuSE 8.2 didnt really fix the problem, I took an educated guess, and decided to examine the fstab. The cdrom's filesystem was set as auto. I just looked up the proper filesystem format for a cdrom (iso9660) and inserted that instead. and that worked! now I can access the directories on a cdrom.

Ah! Does SuSE use the automounter for CDs? That's really knowledgable. Thanks!
