Here's the y2log when I tried with local directory. Yast appears to
complain of a number of missing files/locations. Anyone else see these
errors and are yet still able to install new packages?

Still no luck - see below.

I removed all the ISOs and the old sles9xsp3root and started from scratch,
cut new ISOs downloaded to zLinux instance and ran vanilla mksles9root.sh
(sans my symlink). I then removed and readded the installation source in
yast. All I see now is currently installed software :-(

I have also tried NFS, HTTP and Local Directory - all with the same
results.

They do.

I used this (with a little mod to only show exceptions) - no invalid
checksums.
