[CLUE-Tech] Quick Question: SuSe vs Redhat

[Keith Hellman]

Just an aside, I've run yast2 in curses mode as well.  You may have to
install a particular curses interface for it - but I know you can run
yast2 from a vanilla terminal...

I always do a base minimum install on machines, then add on features like
X, development, yadda yadda - so I may get the curses component installed
with the base.  If I had my suse nb with me, I could check this out,
sorry.
