After starting
  tail -f /var/log/YaST2/y2log | grep attach
Than you have to start in another console
  yast2 sw_single
that will log messages in /var/log/YaST2/y2log which you can see in first 
console in real time, thanks to 'tail -f' command. 
The pipe (vertical line) to
 grep attach 
is there only to isolate only lines that contain string 'attach' (it will 
include for instance reattach, attached, attachment). 

You can try to isolate only lines that contain string '/var/adm/', or 'AP_0' 
that would be 
  grep '/var/adm/' /var/log/YaST2/y2log
or 
  grep 'AP_0' /var/log/YaST2/y2log

What article suggest is to look in /var/adm/mount and remove subdirectories.
They should not exist. If YaST ends without problems it will remove 
subdirectories, if not they will hang in there. The rest is way to search 
where yast is trying to mount external media.
