"Linux Bible, 2008 Edition: Boot up to Ubuntu, Fedora, KNOPPIX, Debian, openSUSE, and 11 Other Distributions"

Figure 10-3 shows the preselected
packages associated with the openSUSE Base System group. Check marks indicate
which packages will be installed. If you want to customize the standard installation,
it??™s a good idea to look through this list to see what you are getting. If you change any of
the selections, click the Check button to make sure that all packages which other packages
depend on are being installed.
FIGURE 10-3
Install additional software using the YaST software module.
The YaST software packages module used for adding, removing, and finding out about
software packages during installation is the same one used on a running openSUSE system.
In either case, you can find out a lot of information about packages that interest you.
With a package selected, click tabs in the box at the bottom-right corner of the screen to
see its description, technical data (its size, packager, and so on), dependencies, and version
numbers.
13. Booting. Select Booting to see the information that is added to your boot loader (GRUB,
by default, but you can use the LILO boot loader as well). The boot loader includes the
information needed to boot Linux: the location of the boot loader, the default operating
system to boot, and other information.
14. Time zone.
