Cyril, it installation stage, not after-installation, all disk is long ago formatted ;-) and OS installed.

So I cannot attached any logs because after this error I rebooted computer, and started installation again. Now I cannot reinstall system because I am working on it.

However, those steps are easy to reproduce, so there is no chance of missing this behaviour.

In my case first created partition was not encrypted, and then I created second partition (on the same disk), encrypted -- from the step (1).

This is fixed in current code base.
Fix will be available with openSuSE 11.3
