Not really, because lvm stores it data in the vgda which is located on the pvs not in the mbr. To delete these you have to execute dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hd*, but this could take a long time depending on space of the harddisk.

Maybe this would work:
From the documentation (http://www.suse.de/~nashif/autoinstall/8.1/html/c326.html#AEN690):
Pre-Install Scripts Executed before YaST2 does any real change of the system (Before partitioning ~~~~~ and package installation) So, make such a script and do a: vgscan vgchange -a y lvremove /dev/myvg/mvlv lv remove /dev/myvg/mylv2 [..] vgchange -a n vgremove myvg If you have different systems with different vg's/lv's, then you could write a script which does these steps automaticly (get the lv/vg from the output from vgscan & lvscan).

Hi,
we have the same problem here with SLES8. Our Workaround is to have an additional autoyast-config without LVM, so we wipe out any lvm information on the disks, before we install the server.
Of course it would be nicer, if this bug would be solved ;-)
Kind regards Andreas Rother UNIX-Systemadministration
