Boot services not starting (ethernet, LVM, passwords)

I may have a borked installation of 9.1 professional.
I was surprised that the install, after having put lilo on hda, didn't have
any internet config or didn't ask me to set a root password.
When I reboot my LVM2 volumes don't get mounted (I added 'auto' in fstab but
no luck -- and I wonder if I should even need to add that for /home and /user
to get mounted anyway).
YaST was able to set up and configure my ethernet card, but after a reboot the
interface doesn't start. It will start if I go into yast and reconfigure the card.
Finally, I did 'passwd root' to set my password, but I don't seem to need a
password to log in -- root followed by a carriage return gets met in.
This is my first Suse install so I'm a little confused.

If your desktop gets out of control easily,
you probably have too much stuff on it that
doesn't need to be there.
