Description of problem:
When I use raid software + Lvm or just raid software between 2 disk
using disk-druid in gui mode,
the installer crashed after partition setting screen.

First time I set Something like :
----------------------------
Partitions /, /usr, etc ...
   |
  LVM
   |
 RAID1
   |
hda, hdc
----------------------------

Second time  :
----------------------------
Partition /usr
   |
  md0
   |
 RAID1
   |
hda, hdc
----------------------------

Now I just use LVM without Raid software.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Choose manual partitionning
2. Use Raid Software ( RAID1 )
3.
    

Actual Results:  Install stopped and server reboot after the error
message.

Additional info:

The following error in the syslog points to a hardware or media problem. 

<4>Error -3 while decompressing!
<4>c02ebc28(1406)->c0e8c000(4096)

Can you verify your media following the instructions at
http://rhlinux.redhat.com/anaconda/mediacheck.html?

Just change the cdrom drive on the machine and now it works.
with the first drive install stops a bind9 rpm, rpm detect a invalid
signature.

Now install succeded with a new drive.

Thanks for all.
