aaaah..... Don't use yast -i
Submitted by decriptor (registered user) on Tue, 2008-07-08 20:58.

If you want this to take more time sure use 'yast -i' , but  I highly recommend using 'zypper in'.  So,

yast -i [package] launches the yast package management stuff and then installs the software (zypper in the background)

zypper in [package] just calls zypper and installs the package(s) and in 11.0 this is blazingly fast even with tons of repos (I have about 15)
