Yet Another Setup Tool
From Free net encyclopedia
Yet Another Setup Tool (YaST) is an operating system setup and configuration tool that is featured in the SUSE Linux distribution. It is also part of United Linux. AutoYaST allows unattended and automated installation and is based on YaST.
YaST is free software, [1] and Novell has made YaST available under the GPL [2].
YaST2 is a fairly complete and competent tool for administering a SuSE Linux installation. It allows you to install software, configure hardware, setup networks, servers, and much more.
A popular feature of YaST is that it contains both GUI and ncurses (e.g., text) frontends. This is especially useful for non-GUI installations and for system administration over slow Internet connections.
