[opensuse] VNC Remote Install on 11.0 Broken

I've tried on openSUSE 11.0 to install via VNC. Simply added vnc=1 to
the startup options, it detects the network via DHCP and then says
"Starting VNC viewer... when Yast is finished close your VNC viewer
and return to this window"

I can then connect via VNC and am prompted for the password. The VNC
session immediately closes and some messages are flashed on the screen
too quick to read and I am taken to the blue installation menu. I can
try again but the same thing happens.

I am installing via VNC only and not SSH because I have secure access
to that network already so there's no point in complicating matters
further and using VNC over SSH.
