reread partitions

Hi all, does anyone know of a way to make autoyast reread the partition table(s) after (or at the end of) a pre-script execution? I'm trying to remove the current partitions, if any, using "parted", which succeeds. However, I'm guessing that autoyast already has a pretty good idea of the current partition plan based on a partition table(s) read prior to my usage of "parted"? R/Lars S
