Click here for a full guide on using the openSUSE YaST install
The YaST GUI install should be pretty straight forward. Please be aware that openSUSE uses btrfs by default along with a separate home partition. You may wish to change this to a single ext4 partition by clicking the Guided Partitioning option in the installer.
You will be presented with 3 options (that we care about anyways) to choose from for installation. You can pick either the default KDE Plasma install, the default GNOME install, or you can do a custom install.
If you choose to do a custom install, you will want to click the Details button at the bottom to get a better look at what packages are being installed. Be aware that when choosing patterns, other recommended patterns may be chosen automatically (you can usually uncheck the extras that were added) such as office software, graphics software, etc. If you are an experienced user and would like a more minimal install, it would probably be best to avoid all of the Desktop Environment patterns and select the packages you wish to install manually.
After choosing the packages you wish to install, an install summary will be shown which allows you to change options before the install starts. Review this page to make sure everything looks in order before proceeding.
