My fault. I use the NET installation CD and select "Rescue System" from
the grub menu and then go back, select "Start Installation" and from
there "Rescue System". I ran "yast bootloader" from an sda6 chroot but
forgot to bind /dev!

With /proc, /sys and /dev mounted and the file patched, it does work:
hvc0:Rescue:~ # mount /dev/sda6 /mnt
hvc0:Rescue:~ # mount /dev --bind /mnt/dev
hvc0:Rescue:~ # mount /sys --bind /mnt/sys
hvc0:Rescue:~ # mount /proc --bind /mnt/proc
hvc0:Rescue:~ # chroot /mnt/
Rescue:/ # yast bootloader

Not unexpected, my kernel boot problem remains, so I'll try downgrading.
Updating Tumbleweed did not help. With repartitioning I'll rather wait
for the yast-bootloader fixes to hit Factory.

Andreas
