The layout of the /etc directory is one of the things that changed between 7.x and 8.0 because of an increased LSB complience, the /etc/rc.config concept has been dropped in favor of several files placed in /etc/sysconfig (I think that's the directory's name.) This is probably why they dropped Yast1, the new configuration file format would have needed a rewrite of much of the program.
