YaST: highlights from the latest two months (with D-Installer bonus)
We realized that, apart from the blog post presenting our D-Installer project, we have not reported any YaST activity during 2022 in our blog. We fixed the issue at https://yast.opensuse.org/blog/2022-02-23/start-2022 It includes some early D-Installer mock-ups and many news about YaST, including: - Improvements the activation of encrypted devices. - Better integration of NFS management in the Partitioner. - Usability and speed enhancements for DASD formatting. - Support for GRUB2 password protection in AutoYaST. - Better handling of the errors found analyzing storage devices. - Adapted the keyboard layouts used by YaST. - Support for selecting the desired Linux Security Module. - Improvements in how the _netdev mount option is handled. - Adapted YaST to be compliant with the inclusive naming initiative. - Definition of specific per-product schemas for AutoYaST. - Integration of the package yast2-firstboot-wsl into yast2-firstboot. - Adjusted creation of snapshots for transactional systems. - Capability for roles and products to specify boot-loader timeout. - Support for switching themes. - Adapted handling of network configuration with iBFT.
