My experience with yast in sles10 is you need to partition the dasd
before creating the lvm group.

In the yast partitioning tool:  Select Create.
                               Pick a volume you want in the lvm group.
                               Do not format, and select the "blank"
mount point.
                               Repeat the above for all dasd you want
in the lvm group.
                               Now create the lvm group.

I am trying to create a logical volume, consisting of five 3390-3 (2.2G ea)

The volumes are attached to the vm as device addresses 202-206 in r/w mode.

Using Yast, all goes well, until I try to apply the changes. Then I get a 
message saying:


Failure occurred during following action:
Creating volume group system

System error code was: -4010

I'm relatively new to Linux on VM and this is my first attempt to create a SLES 
10 system. I do not know where to look up this error code.
