Yes.  I wish I could get to the point of 'having problems' with Software
Raid.  I can't seem to get anaconda to _not see_ the fake raid device
and just pretend /dev/sda and /dev/sdb are just disk.

On a related note, _if_ I do try to use the fake raid devices, i.e.
configure the drives for RAID 1 in the BIOS and use the /dev/mapper
device, the installer will fail after creating the file systems with
some kind of lvm error:
