Hi,

On boot, YaST had installed grub to /dev/sda4, overwriting the main system, ignoring my explicit orders to install on /dev/sda9
I don't understand this, YaST had this working on previous versions. Why write the code again?
The reasons for a complete rewrite of YaST have been explained. In short: YaST was writen in it's own language, resulting in the fact that both YaST and the coding language have to be maintained to stay up with developments. Rewriting in Ruby opens options for new developments/technical improvements. But the translation was done and finished years ago.
You mean that maintenance is done on the original language, not Ruby, then translated again to Ruby?
Then the code is being redone from scratch in Ruby?
Ouch. That hurts.
Why don't you stop making assumptions and e.g. read the (IMHO excellent) sprint reports from the yast team. The links to the full reports have been posted ~weekly on this very list, including a short overview. If you read these reports and have any questions left, feel free to ask again.
