yes that might be, but 0.9.5-11 is a very well tested an nearly bug-free 
version, that normally runs very smooth. The differenc between 0.9.4 and 
0.9.5 are very big.

hm that's not very easy (I have never done it), you need to replace the files 
from within the yast-update-rpm on the installation server within the 
inst-sys directory and you mal also have to build a new ram-disk for that 
installation system.
