This doesn't seem to help. I tried both netsetup=0 and netsetup=-dhcp. Now
pops up a window and tells me "your network has already been configured. Do you
want to keep this configuration?". Then when I say yes, it tries to DHCP again.
:-(

in 9.1
This is something new in 9.1/SLES9. Add netsetup=0 to skip DHCP.
3. Advanced Network Setup
The netsetup keyword allows advanced network configurations and enables
dialogs to setup the network where required.
netsetup=1
the normal network setup questions
netsetup=xxx,yyy
just xxx and yyy
netsetup=+xxx,-yyy
default, additionally xxx, but not yyy
xxx could have the following values: dhcp, hostip, gateway, netmask,
nameserver. nameserverN asks for N nameservers (max. 4).
For example, the following can be entered on the command line:
netsetup=-dhcp,+nameserver3
