YAST has ncurses capability. Actually, I think it started there, and later added the GUI.

SuSE's package management is much less flexible than the other distros; in the 9.x and later releases you can only use the GUI interface. (There's always straight RPM, but that doesn't fetch dependencies for you.)
I haven't tried SuSE... yet, but this is interesting. Is there no way to do a command-line only install with no X system? If so, does the package management system use ncurses or something or similar?
If it's really not possible to have a text based SuSE install, then I probably won't bother trying it out. I prefer to keep my servers lean and mean. The less crap I can install on a box the better.
