What version of suse do you have there? 10.1 had serious issues with package management, 10.2 was improved, and 10.3 is quite nice actually, as long as you do not install zmd, but zypper instead, for your package management needs. If you're using sles 10, they have done some work on that to fix some of the more egregious shortcomings. Terminal mode yast is pretty lightweight. Perhaps if you're in a virtual environment, they have removed some tools, and in that case you should ask what happened to the yast runlevel editor.
