Comments/Problems:
Everything worked great. Minor problem during Partitioning:
When manually editing the partition table, after setting up
Software RAID or LVM, the RAID metadisks and LVM logical
volumes show up in the list as devices with a single partition
listed under each of them. If you only mess with the single
partition listed under each device, everything works fine.
However, if you select a RAID or LVM device itself, it asks
you if you want to create a new partition table on that
device. If you do, it allows you to further partition a
RAID or LVM device. Of course, Software RAID and LVM don't
support partitioning a metadisk or logical volume, so doing
this would probably confuse the installer and make a mess.
