I have been trying to install patterns using Pkg::ResolvableInstall( patternName, `pattern );

Is this supposed to work? It seems to always fail here, and I can't see why.

It should work, I use it in the product creator and I haven't had any problem with it. Could you write more details about your problem (code fragment, error message...)? Did you use correct name of the pattern? You can get list of all available patterns using Pkg::ResolvableProperties("", `pattern, ""). Is your pattern listed in the output?

I also found this in AutoinstClone.ycp:

/* FIXME: if this would work, it would be the better solution foreach(string p, patterns, ``{ Pkg::ResolvableInstall( p, `pattern ); }); Pkg::PkgSolve(false); */

Which wasn't encouraging.

So look at the product-creator. You need to run the solver after selecting the patterns (to select the packages which belong to the pattern). And that's all...
