Things went find using this method until...it found no software to
install. The ftp connection was made, it found the image to install,
but when it came to software selection it said none was available. Is
there a way to tell it I want software?
Then, to make matters more crazy, when, at this point, I tried to give
up on SuSE, its stage2 grub loader took control of the machine and would
not allow be to boot from CDROM. Is there a way I can get rid of the
grub loader.
Thanks for all your help.

All of this sounds like "the hard way".
I believe you can just change the 'source of install' in yast2 (or yast
if you're going non-graphical) to ftp. Point it at a suse mirror
(goggle: 'suse ftp' for the long list). Then install the packages you
want.
If you already have a running system, no reason to mess with new
installers and such. (I assume you aren't running the live cd that
mounts a read-only filesystem for the binaries.)
