This is an answer I got on the openSUSE list:

"Unfortunately you can't start kde from the rescue. It only provides a
minimal run for repair purposes. You would need to do in install to get
the graphics interface."


Seems reasonable. All the live CD stuff seems newer than 9.1. So if you
want to do a check of KDE, I guess you need to do an install.
