Looks like some of the needed rpms are not on the Personal CDs.
You can add one of the SUSE mirrors as ftp installation source, then Yast2
should download the needed packages from there.
Mirrorlist: http://www.suse.de/en/private/download/ftp/int_mirrors.html
Example path:
ftp://ftp.unina.it/pub/linux/distributions/SuSE/ftp.suse.com/suse/i386/9.1
Description: http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/2002/07/yast2_ftp80.html
If you have more problems, just write me personal.

Ciao,
