Little update to this from myself:
The problem seems to be that the tag <lvm_group> as a child of <raid_device> is ignored since SP3. This leads to the vg_create to try and create the volumes with device = "" (nothing) which cannot work.
Q: How do I tell on what device the LVM group is to be created now?
Given the fact that "LVM on software raid is not supported" how is this done with LVM on a plain harddisk?
Regards,
Torsten

Betreff: [suse-autoinstall] LVM config with AutoYAST
Dear list,
we are using SLES 8 with SP3 and try to set up LVM with AutoYAST.
The installer breaks with an error message saying:
lvm vg_create invalid values
Config snippet is below. It worked with non-SP3 SLES.
Any ideas anyone?
Regards,
Torsten
