This is confusing (and debian-installer team got confused) since installing mdadm do the jobs of creating the raidtab whereas installing raidtools2 does not create the raidtab. So I suggest the error message is changed plus initrd-tools suggest mdadm in is dependency.

This was a bug in older verisons of d-i and not in initrd-tools (the submitter confirms it works with recent d-i, see #261987). Closing. -- Martin Michlmayr [EMAIL PROTECTED]
