I am still working with 11.4 Milestone 1

If I allow the SuSE installer to use its default partitioning...
swap /dev/sdi1
root /dev/sdi2
home /dev/sdi3
I get the error message that we have been discussing.

On the other hand if I choose the "create partition setup" and "custom (for 
experts) and partition as follows
swap /dev/sdi1
root /dev/sdi2

(i.e. without creating a separate partition for home)
the installation proceeds without errors.

Is this behavior consistent with your analysis of the problem?
