actually every variable you pass on the command line to linuxrc ends as an 
environment variable. At least in yast but for some reason not on the shell on 
tty2 for example and not for the shell on tty1 either if you login via ssh.

so if you do "autoyast=.... install=.... myvar=uwe" then you should get a 
variable $myvar

Steffen, is it on purpose that the ttyX shells don't get the variable?
