Yomi - an openSUSE installer based on SaltStack (asg2019)

We will present [Yomi](https://github.com/openSUSE/yomi), a new proposal for installing Linux using [SaltStack](https://github.com/saltstack/salt). This installer is designed to be used in heterogeneous clusters, where you need a bit of intelligence during the installation and be integrated as one more step in the provisioning process. [Yomi](https://github.com/openSUSE/yomi) is a new kind of installer for the [open]SUSE family based on SaltStack and independent of AutoYaST. The goal of this project is to make the installation of Linux (currently openSUSE) when: * You have a cluster of heterogeneous nodes (different profiles of memory, storage, CPU and network configurations) * The installation needs to be unattended * The installer needs to make decisions based on local profiles and external data * The installation process needs to be integrated, as one step more, into a more complicated provisioning workflow. The dependencies of Yomi are minimal, as only Salt and a very few CLI tools are required, which make it ideal to be deployed a booted from PXE Boot. about this event: https://cfp.all-systems-go.io/ASG2019/talk/KDEYJZ/
