Comments/Problems:
Nice, very nice. Finally a Debian that installs with RAID and LVM!
Couldn't find a way to make installer create RAID arrays and use one of them for LVM, so I did it myself. When I got to the point where I had to partition the disks, I fired up a terminal, created the RAID arrays, ran pvcreate, vgcreate and lvcreate and returned to the installer. The partitioner happily detected the RAID arrays and logical volumes I had just made, and everything installed just fine from there.
At boot time, however, I get these messages (I installed 2 different machines and got the same messages while booting):
devfs_mk_dev: could not append to parent for /disc devfs_mk_dir: invalid argument.<4>devfs_mk_dev: could not append to parent for /disc devfs_mk_dir: invalid argument.<4>devfs_mk_dev: could not append to parent for /disc devfs_mk_dir: invalid argument.<4>devfs_mk_dev: could not append to parent for /disc devfs_mk_dir: invalid argument.<4>devfs_mk_dev: could not append to parent for /disc
I get 129 of these ones... After that, I get these:
VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev dm-0. VFS: Can't find ext2 filesystem on dev dm-0. VFS: Can't find ext3 filesystem on dev dm-0. VFS: Can't find ext2 filesystem on dev dm-0.
...which is correct, because I use JFS on my logical volumes (I don't like the idea of unmounting an active volume after a vgextend). Finally there's this bit:
