I ended up doing mine manually as well. I am doing RAID6 on some of the systems. YAST doesn't even have an option for that so I end up doing it in a post-boot script. -- Andrew

I have modified my autoyast to a simpler partitioning scheme. This seems to work. However, eventually I will need to add support for a more advanced partitioning scheme with multiple drives. Do you suggest using the Autoinstallation tool, or editing the bare xml file? I have attached the modified autoinst.xml file. Below is the partitioning scheme I would like to implement.
sda1 - /boot 100M - /swap 2GB - / 30GB - LVM max sda2 - LVM max volgrp1 - logical volume 1 max
Sorry if I responded to the wrong address

your partitioning section looks not so good. /dev/sdb looks strange and can (should) be removed out of your profile. on sda you don't want to create any partition except for one in the middle of all others. That's a problem with autoyast. Set create to "false" for the root partition too or set all other partitions to create=true with a <use>all</use> maybe
It should also be noted that my autoinst.xml file fails RNG validation (https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=211014#c21)
you can ignore that.
