Yes, I should have faith in the church of SuSE ! I started again, and just
ignored this message. Then the installation completed as normal, and then
when it booted the installed system the first time, YaST was started, again
as normal. Bu then, YaST told me that some packages hadn't been installed,
and asked if I would like to install them. This is happening as I speak, and
every now and then YaST pops up a dialog where it asks

Please tell me where CD X is installed on the server.


This is exactly what I expected to happen, it's just happening at a
different point in the install process than I expected.

Niall
