Roger,
You should try NO KMS (in F3 Video Mode pull down list) instead of text mode.
Reason:
The text mode (kernel cmdline textmode=1) tells yast to start in text mode
(ncurses based) thus it requires no X windows to run, but the kernel KMS driver
still loaded and performs the mode-setting. This way it's just luck to avoid
the mess by KMS and X server.
The textmode=1 parameter was filtered by linuxrc as it's not standard kernel
parameter but only meaningful to installation system. So in next reboot you end
up with yast running on X again and problem recurred.
Use NO KMS will use nomodeset which completely avoid mode setting by KMS driver
and X from running. And since that parameter is a recognized one by linux
kernel (aka not installation system specific) it got carried to final installed
system (not filtered out by linuxrc).
