The subject was: Why did they remove yast1?
Here goes:

Yes, it appears to work fine - at least the 'install packages' option
which I have tried with KDE3.
To install it you will have to move three links out of the way:

/sbin/yast
/sbin/YaST
/sbin/zast

it then installs fine with a:

rpm -i --nodeps --force yast.rpm

from the 7.3 suse cd, cd 1, directory a1.

Since it runs the SuSeconfig of the original 8.0 install afterwards, I
do not see why it wouldn't work fine, since you are basically using it
as an ftp client...
