[opensuse-autoinstall] autoyast and partitions
If I use autoyast and xml file, without any partitions rules, will the existing partitions be safe ? That is, will I be asked about partition scheme ? Or will partitions be erased automatically ? -- : ` _..-=-=-=-.._.--.

Dunno what happens if you only leave the partition section out. YaST probably tries to install the system in unused disk space and use existing swap partitions. If you want to be asked about partitions, that is, you want to get the YaST partition proposal screen, put a proposals section in the general section: <general> ... <proposals config:type="list"> <proposal>partitions_proposal</proposal> </proposals> ... </general> Cf. section 4.1 of the autoYaST manual (http://users.suse.com/~ug/autoyast_doc/configuration.html#CreateProfile.Gene...)
