Yes, on this server I have disable the hardware RAID, and I have instal
fc6 using the (great!) software RAID.

But I have must to use the 'nodmraid' option at the boot install prompt,
otherwise anaconda it does not start X.

Question:

a) Is this a know issue?
b) Which function has the dmraid service during the setup process?

Many thanks!
