Please find the requested info attached.

Unfortunately I have lost control of the test machine (it has gone into
Production quicker than I anticipated), so I am unable to provide further
information :(

The last line before crash is:
VM_XEN.ycp:815 Extracting XEN kernel from the installation source (arch=x86_64) ...

It seems that it aborts at Pkg::PkgProperties("kernel-xen", "suse/" + arch)
(arch is either 'i386' or 'x86_64')

In 10.1 there is a new interface to package manager, it's possible to get full path to a package.
