Yes this warning message is received.

But later in YaST2 I have no virtual partitions :(.

I like to configure 
/dev/sdg1 -> /dev/hda1   (data)
/dev/sdf1  -> /dev/hdb1    (swap)

next domU

/dev/sdg2 -> /dev/hda1   (data)
/dev/sdf2  -> /dev/hdb1    (swap)

This is not possible I can't found this later in YaST2
most time I have no disks in YaST2

install medium is a SL10.1.iso  this is configured as "hda" (?) from YaST2  i 
change this to hdc.

Most time YaST2 would like install the ystem in the iso file ??, and prepare 
this in a hda1 (hdc1) and hda2. (hdc2)

And the SLE or SL source iso was not more found, I have to config a nfs 
install later.

I mean the YaST2 Module have big problems with the devices ?
the config File from domU is correct ?
