Thanks - removed.

tried it: no luck. I only have two raid partitions as I am mirroring. We
also need to describe the fstype here too (--fstype=ext3 is what I
changed it to).

The root partition raid members are actually about 1GB.

Looks like another kickstart bug then.

Does anyone know how to do the last section:

raid /boot --level=1 --device=md1 --fstype=ext3 raid.01 raid.02 
raid /usr --level=1 --device=md4 --fstype=ext3 raid.03 raid.04 
raid /var --level=1 --device=md3 --fstype=ext3 raid.05 raid.06 
raid --level=1 --device=md6 --fstype=swap raid.07 raid.08 
raid / --level=1 --device=md2 --fstype=ext3 raid.09 raid.10 
raid /home --level=1 --device=md5 --fstype=ext3 raid.11 raid.12

using a %pre script that does a mkraid?

Thanks.
