Heya all
Since I cant seem to get the <location> option to work, and since in
i can get <location> working just fine, using http://<ip>/path it kinda "just worked" for me :)
At least one other person responded that they didn't work. Maybe it is isolated to a particular network card or config? I don't know. These two errors lead me to think it's a network issue.

hmm. not according to http://www.suse.com/~ug/autoyast_doc/createprofile.scripts.htm l (and my setup) :
"Starting from SLES9, network is not available during post-installation script execution. To access the network, network device has to be configured in the script.
It is possible to execute the post scripts in an earlier phase while the installation network is still up and before AutoYaST configures the system. To run network enabled post scripts, the boolean property network_needed has to be set to true."
this is about postinstall, not init scripts - which, in turn :
"These scripts are executed during the initial boot process and after YaST2 has finished. The final scripts are executed using a special init.d script which is executed only once. The final scripts are executed toward the end of the boot process and after network has been intialized."
i have an init script which nicely downloads required files, and it works fine.
