Hi list,

I have problems to create a working autoyast profile with 2 physical
volumes and 2 volume groups. I am using SLES 10 and profile works for
one VG. After adding another PV and a VG, yast complains, that it could
not create "a logical volume of requested size" an no note has been
logged to y2log. Size of disks is large enought available, of course.

Here is the partitioning part of my profile:

  <partitioning config:type="list">
    <drive>
      <device>/dev/cciss/c0d0</device>
      <initialize config:type="boolean">true</initialize>

I also tried to use 2 seperate partitioning elements, but the later one
overrides all.

Also surprising was, that when using an empty partions list for the
second volume group, a `pvscan' during installation shows, that both PVs
are assigned to the same VG 'system'.

Has anybody an idea?

Regards
Oliver
