booting with nodmraid seems to made it work (thanks autopsy!)
Is this reproducable with F13 beta?
Looking at the logs, this was an installation from a livecd on to a system which has 3 drives, which were recognized by dmraid as being a BIOS RAID set, but anaconda did not recognize them as such. Are (were) your drivers configured inside a promise controller firmware to be a RAID set ? Can you please run as root: blkid -p -o udev /dev/sda blkid -p -o udev /dev/sdb blkid -p -o udev /dev/sdc dmraid -ay -t -vvv And copy and pastethe output of these commands to a comment ?

Thx for the dmraid output. That is not consistent with my suspicions, but given that you've done a nodmraid install chances are that the dmraid info got wiped of the disks. So I'm going to close this as insufficient info. If you hit an installation issue next time, if possible please wait until we can gather enough info to pinpoint the issue before working around it.
