“For end users, SuSE boasts of a new graphical set up program.
This builds on the company’s very successful YaST installation
routine. YaST 2, besides being prettier, also gets in line with
other reseller Linux installation routines by delivering on
automatic hardware detection of PCI-based equipment.”

Your customers who want everything and the kitchen sink in
open-source software also will be pleased with the remarkable
fullness of this package’s included software. How much is
there?
Suffice it to say that this SuSE Linux edition comes on
one DVD or six CD-ROMs. If it’s open source and runs on Linux, it’s
in there.”
