I think the problem lies with yast2. Boot from the CD and then run yast1 to
complete the install. I had the same problem but installing with yast1
solved it. Yast2 does not write the silo information (i think), hence the
post install process fails....yast1 does not have this problem
let us know if this solves your problem.
