Introduction
- YaST Yet another Setup Tool
YaST is the installation and configuration tool for openSUSE and the SUSE Linux Enterprise distributions. It is popular for its easy use and attractive graphical interface and the capability to customize your system quickly during and after the installation.
- A short history of YaST
The development of YaST started in January 1995. It was written in C++ with a ncurses GUI by Thomas Fehr (one of the S.u.S.E. founders) and Michael Andres. The 1st appearance of YaST2 was in November 1999 (for installation only on SuSE Linux 6.3). In 2000 YaST2 for the running system was included in SuSE Linux 7.1.
