Hi Uwe,
after spending the last 2 days on the problem, here is my conslusion:
the driverupdate file gets not integrated into the installation
system, when it is a cpio archive. After creating a cramfs with the
same contents, it works (updates are copied to /update/y2update).
Creating multiple VG did also not work. I patched the file
AutoinstLVM.ycp and now it seems to work.
The patch file is attached to this email and i have not testet other
partitioning profiles with it, yet, but maybe this patch will lead to a
tidy solution. I must confess, not to understand much of the yast2 code,
so i'm not sure, whether the changes are correct.
Here is the partitioning snippet of my autoyast profile:
