Log in as the SuperUser with the su command, and then type yast at the
prompt. Figure 5.2 shows the opening screen in a KDE Konsole.
This is especially useful in an emergency, when the system won??™t boot to the GUI login
screen. To restore your system from a previous backup (see Chapter 20, ???Managing
Data: Backup, Restoring, and Recovery,??? for more information on backing up and
restoring your system), follow these steps:
1. Run YaST by typing yast at the rescue prompt.
2. Use the arrow key to select System from the listing on the left.
3. Tab to the module section on the right, and then arrow down to Restore System.
4. Follow the instructions on the page or view details in the ???Using System
Restoration??? section of Chapter 20.
To maneuver around the menus and choices, use the accelerator keys highlighted on
each screen. Press the Alt key with the highlighted letter to move to the item you want.
For example, in any screen, press Alt+H to get Help on that screen. When finished,
press Alt+Q to Quit and return to the shell prompt.
All YaST modules that are in the GUI version work in the command-line version as well,
although Online Update (YOU) is dependent on the state of your Internet connection.
