I remember there was something that you could do which would save all the installed packages and settings that you entered in during the installation to a floppy disk, and that you could use that floppy disk for an automated installation if you ever needed it again.
Is that still around?
What you are looking for has grown to AutoYaST
How do I find it?

Is this a part of YAST or a seperate application?
I was hoping to be able to capture all the packages on an installation and save it for later. I'm playing with distributions and would like to keep a record of what I installed on it in case I want to go back.
There is a function on the software selection screen to save the selections to a floppy or a file. Click on 'FILE' in the upper left of the screen and you will find the function.
