Ah, thank you very much! I do have tried to specify 'autoyats=' and also
tired to specify 'install=' but never tired to use them together! 
That's because I started to think autoyast and installation are not
related, otherwise install source should be a part of autoyast.

Stupid I am. Anyway, problem solved.
