This problem, is 'partly' solved in the updated package.
I use the package
rpm -qa | grep -i auto
Yast2-trans-autoinst-2.5.14-6
Yast2-module-autoinst-2.5.26-0
Are there newer ones?
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.
After I fail wiht autoinstallation, i do following:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1k count=100
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=1k count=100
With this, the partition table should be erased, and a new LVM should be
possible.
My already listing:

Ther error message are:
LVM-Fehler:

Would be nice if you could help me
