Hello 'liwbj',
just to be sure that we understood you correctly (and that it's really similar to LP#1993633):

- so you started an installation (IPLed the installer)
- logged in to the installer from remote using ssh
- ran through the installer steps until reaching the 'zdev' screen
- enabled your LUN, by enabling the zfcp-host (aka HBAs)
- then you switched to the installer shell (via the Help menu or just by using 'F2')
- there you wiped the entire disk/LUN manually like
  (starting with potential partitions, and then the entire disk device):
  wipefs -a -f /dev/sda1
  wipefs -a -f /dev/sda2
  wipefs -a -f /dev/sda
- and then you restarted the installation from scratch?
  This is important - just leaving the installer shell with 'exit'
  and proceeding with the current install might not be sufficient for this workaround.
  You need to re-IPL the installation after having wiped out the disk/LUN manually.

Please could you confirm this?
