I was about to say the very same thing, but it's not correct. If you run 'yast', you get the ncurses interface, if you run YaST2 you get the GUI (assuming DISPLAY is set). I've just tried it on an 11.1 system.
In this case, there was a major practical difference: Whereas the YaST2 function could never detect my drive, yast did.
Most likely this is a symptom of the underlying issue that has been the overarching subject of this now rather large thread (*), not any difference between the yast / YaST / YaST2 parititioner module, of which there is only one. (Actually, YaST2 had a predecessor, but it's no longer included and the synonyms are just for backward compatibility, if I understand correctly.) (*) This may be one of the longest threads ever seen on this list that is mostly on-topic and hasn't degenerated (much) into unseemly or tangential exchanges.
