Mark, I had been trying to use the GUI, as that is what I've been using all along, with the command 'ssh -X ....@....'. It had ben working fine, up until the reboot. I'll try -Y.
I also tried /usr/lib/YaST2/startup/YaST2.ssh, but nothing ever came up to continue the install. Dave Dave Stuart Prin. Info.

Are you trying to use the text mode installer via SSH, or the GUI? If the text mode, then you should be executing /usr/lib/YaST2/startup/YaST2.ssh to continue the install. If that's what you're doing then try running "unset DISPLAY" before executing it. If you're using the GUI, make sure that xorg-x11-xauth is one of the RPMs that gets installed. If it is, try connecting to the system using "ssh -Y" which enables trusted X11 forwarding.
