Thanks for the tip. Looks like the problem was with the module ata_piix, however, seeing that this problem occurs in multiple modules there seems to be more behind it than just a problem about the modules. > NB - I allowed network access and remote repositories, so the kernel > loaded for the installed system was newer & didn't show the problem. Sadly this is not an option for me. I could only access the network via WLAN, and while YAST seems to properly load the drivers for the intel chipset I cannot use it because that part of the network configuration is missing in the installer.
