Hello, Thank you once again! I now appear to have a fully working autoyast config file! :-) I'm sure I will have to make other modifications and additions to the file, for which I'm sure I'll need help, but for the moment, it's working. Thank you to all who have helped with this long, but satisfying, process, and special thanks to Uwe Gansert!

When autoyast ignored the runlevel in the xml config profile, is that definitely a known bug then?
yes - known and fixed for 10.1
Once I have created the chroot script, do you know how I can actually change the default runlevel using a script? I
something like this (untested)
<scripts> <chroot-scripts config:type="list"> <script> <chrooted config:type="boolean">true</chrooted> <filename>chroot.sh</filename> <interpreter>shell</interpreter> <source><![CDATA[ #!/bin/sh sed 's/id:5:initdefault/id:3:initdefault/' /etc/inittab > /tmp/inittab.new mv /tmp/inittab.new /etc/inittab ]]> </source> </script> ...
Also, the following seems to be ignored as well:
<language>en_GB</language>
It seems to still want to install using "English (US)". Is this another known bug?
I can reproduce it on 10.0 but not on 10.1 We did some changes in the country configuration via autoyast. This bug seems to be fixed by that. The bug itself is new to me.
If so, is there a workaround? If not, is "en_GB" a correct value? Am I using it in the correct place:
the usage is correct. It seems to be a bug. Try to workaround it by kicking the <language> out of your profile and add "language=en_GB" to your kernel commandline
