The subject was: Why did they remove yast1? Here goes:
Thanks for the reply.
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:
I am not sure what you mean "out of the way" ????. What has to be done with the 3 files ?.
/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...
am I missing something really obvious with yast2, can you install new downloaded packages with it ?
