Description Jiří Suchomel 2008-10-07 13:55:24 UTC 
during hardware configuration part of installation, sound asks to install alsa-firmware (and some other alsa package). This is often the only user interaction required in 2nd stage: IMHO the installer should install these packages without asking, at least when doing automatic configuration (this could be checked by GetInstArgs::automatic_configuration() AFAIK).

Yes, good point.

/usr/share/YaST2/modules/GetInstArgs.ycp

    /**
     * Is the automatic configuraton just in progress?
     *
     * @return boolean if running the automatic configuration
     */
    global boolean automatic_configuration () {
        Init();
        return args["AutomaticConfiguration"]:false;
    }
