So my plan is: I have openSUSE 11.2 (m8) Gnome LiveCD installed in my VirtualBox and now i want to move the schema to server side. I know, this is not normal, but it’s fun - ‘Have a lot of fun!’, that is what i do in my study time.
So, how can i remove the packages useless for servers in a simple mode? My first idea uses category GROUP of a package, but this not work.
I can, for example, see the packages on System/Daemons, ok, but i can’t see a list of groups inside System/ in a easy way.

how do you define “packages useless for servers”…that is, what kind
of server do you want to run?
not sure i understand the question, but if you have a functioning
desktop based on a live CD iso and want to change to a routine *nix
server like say is used in a server farm: just
-open YaST
-go Software > Software Management
-flip the “Filter” from “Search” to “Patterns”
-right click to delete all the “Graphical Environments”
-right click to add all the “Server Functions” and “Development”
sections you need…
i’d guess it best to reboot then and say hello to your powerful
server’s command line…
but, you might wanna take a snapshot of the VM you have, just in case
you don’t like the server too much…
