``` YAST(8) System configuration YAST(8) NAME YaST - "Yet another Setup Tool", the installation and configuration tool SYNOPSIS yast2 [ options ] [ module ] [ module specific options ] DESCRIPTION YaST can be used to configure the system. It can configure a common hardware (sound cards, printers), network connections (network cards), network clients and services (like NFS, FTP), as well as a general sys- tem options (language, partitioning, software, bootloader). YaST comes with Qt (graphical) and ncurses (text mode) frontends located in libyui-qt and libyui-ncurses packages. Both frontends are functionally equivalent. The correct frontend is selected automatically based on the available components and the current environment (the DIS- PLAY variable).
