Hmmm, I've been a SuSE user since 5.3 and I love them.

And then ...when I will set up the deamons, the rc.config is put away
WITHOUT a equivalent replacement !!!

Not true, read the friendly manual and look in /etc/sysconfig. There
is also, as always, a section in the manual (chapter 4, "From Version
to Version") detailing the major changes between releases.

If I want to make this setup without tweeking ( the MAJOR reason that
I migrate from "red hat" like to Suse ) I MUST use AGAIN this great
peace of sheet called Yast2, and, I must remember run levels and other
things that I running awy from when migrate to Suse !!!

Not sure what you mean here, but if you run YaST (console or X) and
select System / Runlevel Editor / Runlevel properties, you will be
presented with an easy-to-use interface that lets you enable or
disable a service (with default runlevels if you don't know how to
set them). Or you can use "insserv" from the command line. Look at
chapter 12 of the 460-page manual that comes with SuSE.

What a hell is this ?!?!?
involution ??? steps back ???
If Suse don't release a "Suse 7.4" with kernel 2.4.18 or 2.4.19 or a
Suse 8.1 WITH Yast1 or MUCH MUCH more fast and friendly
Yast 2 I will stay away from Suse until now !! ( and my clients too !! )

Sounds good to me.

Now I can undestand all msg from this list soon after 8.1 release !

There has not, of course, been an 8.1 release.
