Yes. Linux softraid.

No. I am not doing a kickstart install.

And I succesfully updated two other machines with F10 installed on Linux 
softraid, to F11.

Something in Anaconda is failing to see the second and the third drive on a 
machine with the first drive being an IDE drive, and the 2nd and the 3rd 
drive being SCSI drives. It doesn't see the drives, but I can flip over to 
the ALT-F2 shell, and run mdadm --assemble --scan. mdadm ends up creating 
/dev/md125, /dev/md126, and /dev/md127 (!), rather than /dev/md[012], but I 
can mount them manually and see my existing F10 partitions.

So, Anaconda is not even assembling my existing RAID arrays. I can assemble 
them manually, but Anaconda does not see them.
