Hi, where do I get the "root"-file from?

i am seeing something similar here. we have a dhcp/tftp/http server setup to do installs. if we boot a machine via pxe with no keyboard connected, autoyast appears to hang with:
No keyboard detected. Trying to connect via serial interface /dev/ttyS0. On your terminal computer start ...
the blue install screen never comes up. however the autoyast install progresses (in the background?) and eventually completes sucessfully.
when i setup the server i copied linux and initrd from x86_64/9.1/boot/loader/ which was rsynced from mirror.mcs.anl.gov. the md5sums of the files we are using:
37dd0ca03f8c3117b571b92a51473b3d linux.suse.9.1 2987e927a80fe615f57d8308035e9c1b initrd.suse.9.1
which appear to match what is on that mirror.
