Created attachment 399875 [details] the log of anaconda I download a Fedora 13 Alpha LiveCD (GNOME). I create LiveUSB and boot it. I try to install on my existed RAID0 array but it fails. Anaconda can not format the partitions then it shows a debug dialog. I save the log. I upload it as an attachment. The RAID0 array contains of two Seagate 7200.12 250GB disk on Intel ICH9R. My motherboard is Foxconn P35A-S, which the chip are P35 and ICH9R.
I forget to told you that anaconda can detect BIOS RAID0 array but it can not format it.

Hmm, This bug has the same mke2fs "error" as bug 573500: 01:26:11,531 INFO program: Running... mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/mapper/isw_chcjdcefhi_Volume0p1 01:26:11,587 INFO program: / 01:26:11,588 ERROR program: mke2fs 1.41.10 (10-Feb-2009) Which is anything but useful.
I have a hunch what is going on here, see bug 573643.
*** Bug 573500 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The mkfs.ext? maintainer has decided to no longer make mkfs go interactive when creating an fs on an unaligned partition, so no anaconda changes are necessary, marking this as a duplicate of the e2fstools bug tracking the mkfs.ext? changes. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 573643 ***
