Driver update needed to start YaST
The driver update is initiated by pressing F5 at the boot prompt.
linuxrc then asks for an update media, mounts it, and looks for a /driverupdate directory.
linuxrc then runs modprobe for each driver it finds in this directory.
... snwint@suse.de should know further details ...
