Try this, well you have to setup your inst source first, or
just copy the rpm-file somewhere.

/* If yast don't start, error: qt , ncurses does not work */
/**********************************************************/
  495  mount -t nfs zlin0100:/local/instsrc /mnt/inst     
  496  cd /mnt/inst/sles10sp2/CD1/suse/s390x/         
  497  ls popt*                                  
  498  rpm -i --force popt-1.7-271.27.s390x.rpm    
  499  exit

Subject: Yast not working under SLES 10 SP2

Dear all,

Today I was facing a quite strange problem:

I recycled a SLES 10SP2  image and since then I cannot start Yast any more.

# yast
warning: the qt frontend is installed but does not work
warning: the ncurses frontend is installed but does not work
You need to install yast2-ncurses to use the YaST2 text mode interface

It is strange since before the reboot everything was working well.

I didn't apply any fixes and especially didn't delete anything. I don't know
how yast2-ncurses could be gone.

Any ideas what to do?
