From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 4.0) Description of problem: Any Software RAID specified in the ks.cfg EG: part raid.54 --size=8000 --ondisk=sdb part raid.53 --size=8000 --ondisk=sda raid / --fstype ext3 --level=RAID1 raid.53 raid.54 Fails with the message: An error occurred trying to format md0. This problem is serious, and the install cannot continue. Press <enter> to reboot your system During the creation of partitions. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. With a Dell system create a VFAT partition and add all ISO's to that along with DOS, boot kernel stuff, loadlin, and a ks.cfg specifying some Software RAID partitions 2. Create an autoexec.bat to kick of loadlin with the ks.cfg and default install kernel 3. mark VFAT partition active and reboot to it Actual Results: Got the above error during partitioning Expected Results: Creation of the Software RAID Additional info: Dell Computer needs this to be able to factory install red hat linux with software RAID.
