This problem is serious, and the install cannot continue. Press <Enter> to reboot your system."

Create a software raid partition on device sdb of 100M 3. Create a software raid1 device (sda1+sdb1) ext3 /boot 4. Create a software raid partition on device sda of 1000M 5. Create a software raid partition on device sdb of 1000M 6. Create a software raid1 device (sda2+sdb2) ext3 /usr 7. Create a software raid partition on device sda of 1000M 8.

Create a software raid partition on device sdb of 600M 24. Create a software raid1 device (sda8+sdb8) swap 25. Create a software raid partition on device sda of 500M 26. Create a software raid partition on device sdb of 500M 27. Create a software raid1 device (sda9+sdb9) ext3 /tmp 28. Create a software raid partition on device sda of 500M 29. Create a software raid partition on device sdb of 500M 30. Create a software raid1 device (sda10+sdb10) ext3 / 31. Create a software raid partition on device sda of REST 32. Create a software raid partition on device sdb of REST 33. Create a software raid1 device (sda11+sdb11) ext3 /data Have everything formatted and click Next Actual Results: "An error occured trying to format md1. This problem is serious, and the install cannot continue. Press <Enter> to reboot your system." Expected Results: Anaconda should be able to succesfully create all of the filesystems on all of the MDs Additional info:
I can verify this, but the error message I'm getting from mkraid is that the array is active and to run raidstop first. Checking /proc/mdstat, md1 isn't active although md10 is. Looks like a raidtools bug in how it parses /proc/mdstat for the device in question
