The /var/adm/cache/autoinstall/installedSystem.xml says:
<bootloader> <global config:type="list"> <global_entry> <key>timeout</key> <value config:type="integer">10</value> </global_entry> <global_entry config:type="boolean">true</global_entry> <global_entry config:type="boolean">true</global_entry> <!-- Hmm, this is interesting.

Here's my bootloader section:
<bootloader> <global config:type="list"> <global_entry> <key>timeout</key> <value config:type="integer">10</value> </global_entry> <activate config:type="boolean">true</activate> <boot_mbr config:type="boolean">true</boot_mbr> </global>
<activate config:type="boolean">true</activate> <loader_type>grub</loader_type> <location>mbr</location> <repl_mbr config:type="boolean">true</repl_mbr></bootloader> ----------------------------------------------------------- [Aside: while i see a few random examples showing a structure for the bootloader section like: <global_entry> <key>serial</key> <value>--unit=0 --speed=57600 --word=8 --parity=no --stop=1</value> </global_entry> The 'yast2 autoyast' GUI generates lines like: <serial>--unit=0 --speed=57600 --word=8 --parity=no --stop=1</serial>
Which is correct, or are both? (and if so, which is preferred?) ]

Definitely uses both styles...
http://www.suse.de/~ug/autoyast_doc/CreateProfile.Bootloader.html#id324951 <bootloader> <global config:type="list"> <global_entry> <key>serial</key> <value>--unit=1 --speed=115200</value> </global_entry>
and the very last example:
<bootloader> .... <global> <activate>true</activate> <generic_mbr>false</generic_mbr> <boot_mbr>false</boot_mbr> </global> .... </bootloader>
are they both correct, or is the latter example old-style?
