So I tried this morning to create a new install with a LVM and XTS. All goes well until I amend the size of the /home and create a /opt. When ones selects accepts one is told, on your bike, there is no "/" defined. Go back and leave all alone and one gets a file system... Anyone used the "Expert Partitioner" to create there own layout with XTS ? This is part of trying to find why a SLES12 SP1 Beta1 runs happy but will not update to Beta2. I am of course using VMware Workshop 12.0, but I don't see that giving the partitioner an issues. I'll let it build with a big /home and try amending after the build. I'll create a SR for the partitioner if it's not a know issue.

LVM in Beta2 is broken as you already found out, so as
long as you use LVM, everything around this will not work, too.
