Description Andre Raabe 2006-02-10 09:23:18 UTC 
I get the following error code during autoyast installation:

Error code: -4015
Logical Volume can`t be deleted.
Volume group not found.

This Errorcode appears only after a second installation on the same machine (harddisks have partitions). An installation on a system with clean harddisks is no problem.

I've already applied patch from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/ug/autoyast/ because i've got error code -6002 in previous version.

Here is a cut of my autoinstall.xml file with related partition settings:

Comment 1 Uwe Gansert 2006-02-10 10:13:15 UTC 
this is a known bug in 10.0 in the yast storage library.
Try to wipe out the partition table with <initialize> and if that fails, then use a pre-script to wipe out the partition table.
On 10.1 this is fixed.
