I just tried this again, using this site instead in the info file:
http://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.1/inst-source/

and i'm still getting the same error.  I looked at the Y2log, and I'm seeing:
Bad media attach point:
http://204.152.191.7/opensuse/distribution/SL-10.1/inst-source/

At this point, it looks like i just don't have a valid installation
source, although it boggles my mind how that is possible.   The DVD
ISO image doesn't work, and neither does this public mirror.  So what
I really need to know is where is a valid installation source for
10.1?

It would also be swell if the installer actually provided useful error
messages, but i guess that's a complaint for a different mailing list.
