Hello,
i tryed to autoinstall two physical volumes, one on /dev/sda4 and one on /dev/sdb, with the same volume_group system. But it won't work. Following my partition section. The error message where "vgcreate -A n -s 4096k system /dev/system vgcreate -- ERROR can't create a new physical volumes on /dev/sda4".
This problem, is 'partly' solved in the updated package. The only problem currently available is when you try to configure LVM using autoinstall on an already configured disk, i.e. you installed LVM and now you are trying to install again. Then yast might complain that the VG is already there. I have dome several tests and with a blank harddsik (or a harddisk without previous LVM configuration) it works fine.
Listing: <partition> <size>max</size> <filesystem-id config:type="integer">142</filesystem-id> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ should be filesystem_id, and normally not needed if lvm_group is defined.
<lvm_group>system</lvm_group> </partition> </partitions>
