I can confirm the same problem with OpenSuSE 10.1 2006/6/28, Matt Gillard <Matt.Gillard@colesmyer.com.au>:
I have logged SR#10273247971 for this but I thought I would get peoples thoughts here as well.
Problem is with the <default> global parameter in the <bootloader> section of autoyast. ie: This also gives the same error for the default tag. It should default to SLES_10 - I should not have to specify it.
<bootloader> <global> <default></default> <gfxmenu></gfxmenu> <prompt>1</prompt> <timeout config:type="integer">5</timeout> </global> <loader_type>lilo</loader_type> <location>mbr</location> </bootloader> "Value expected for 'default' at or above line 11 in file /etc/lilo.conf."
And sure enough in /mnt/etc/lilo.conf at that point of the installation default has no value.
