  traditional, yast2 with fixed IP addresses.

 And booting really waits for those IPs?  This looks strange to me.
 Could you show the output from the log files for this?

 I was more thinking of install or upgrade of OS.  Or any task that
 defaults to testing DHCP.

Ah - I misunderstood you here.  For install or upgrade I consider this
ok,

 Perform a scan for new HW after the system is booted up.
 Ad manual option to scan for new HW.

 Network up as early as possible, ingates closed (except dhcp) until cli

   With todays changes we seem to be able to do a self-contained

 This sounds realy great! What will the size of the base be then?

This is the base system for building the distribution.

Btw. current minimal base for installation is 400 MB,

Which is about half a CD.
This must be small enough for now, don't you think?

I agree that it should be configurable choice. 

The DHCP is must for new users just as it is automatic hardware recognition. 
Once system is configured there must be a choice, to turn both off and on as 
required. To prevent problems if hardware was changed when computer was off 
(for any reason) there should be boot option to look for hardware changes.
