I of course boot to CD1, use YaST installer to make/format partitions and make attach points, check packages and then proceed with package install(5cd's). I don't understand how I can run those commands except after the suse install is over (I boot to rescue and proceed?).

You should do this before reinstalling. I suggest you boot from the SuSE rescue System, run YaST and use the partitioner. Make sure that you uncheck "format partition" for the swap partition (that is what mkswap does). After repartitioning, run the commands that I mentioned. You can now do a fresh install, but make sure you tell the installer to use the existing partitions.
