This is currently impossible in sarge-installer, because the parted we had there didn't support the purely cosmetical RAID/LVM partition types. Purely cosmetical because they are only there to make partman happy, but never used by the raid/lvm tools. That said, parted 1.6.24 (and probably as early as 1.6.22 if i remember well, the one after sarge anyway) has this fixed, so using the daily-builds should help you out (but they are probably pretty broken right now due to the kernel packaging changes).
