with SLES10 SP1 i had a simliar problem which was in the end due to a
bug in mkinitrd-1.2-106.57 (Novell Bugzilla #288510 - not public)

so if you are using SLES10 SP1 maybe try the new mkinitrd

Thank you Michael .. I will have to install during the installation
phase, which means I have to execute an RPM installation in the
"chroot
section" of the autoinstallation process.

Can I safely execute:

rpm --relocate /=/mnt -Uvh
http://192.168.10.56/rpms/mkinitrd.rpm

Sorry I don't know. I have put the new RPM into a existing
"add_on_product" in the installation source. AY then picks the mkinitrd
with the highest version number to install.
