Dear friends,

I am working on the OS Zoo project, trying to contribute several images of 
popular GNU/Linux distros. At first, I am planning to release SuSE 9.1 and 
Mandrake 10 and Fedora Core 2 systems.

Today, I installed a fresh SuSE 9.1 system, removed proprietary software 
bundled with it (Opera, etc..) that probably require a distribution 
agreement.

The resulting Qemu image is a custom SuSE 9.1 "base" offering only free 
software.

My question is :

During initial bootup, I would like to display the main Yast configuration 
dialogs, like during a normal installation:

- language selection
- screen resolution
- maybe upgrades
- root account
- etc...

After a quick search, I found the following information about AutoYast:
http://www.suse.de/~nashif/autoinstall. One way or another, configuration 
during bootup seems to be possible.

If some of you is familiar with SuSE customization, do not hesitate to contact 
me. Help needed...

Kindest regards,
Jean-Michel
