Hi, I recently was playing with YaST-less installed openSUSE Factory and run into a lot of issues. I used `zypper --root' to set up whole installation, which is for me similar approach like using debootstrap for Debian. It is handy way to set up system for different machine or to set up chroot environment for different distributions. That lead me to several questions: 1] Do we support such way of installation? If yes, is it somewhere documented? 2] If not yet, do we want to support such way of installation? It is nice way to verify package dependencies, easy way to prepare system on other system, etc. We have to be able to set up system in similar way at least for setting up build environment but that way probably doesn't care about configuration. 3] we do support kiwi installation (and SUSE Studio appliances), there was YaST2 directory installation module (but I can't find it anymore), there is build environment setup - does that differ in the way the system is configured after? wouldn't it make sense to unify it (and keep in mind during packaging)? Best regards, Tomas Cech
