RAID 1 without specifying devices

[Shabazian, Chip]

I've made my installs generic by doing some work in the %pre, then using
%include /tmp/partinfo in the command section.

something like this is what I use in the %pre

# Determine how many drives we have
set $(list-harddrives)
let numd=$#/2
d1=$1
d2=$3

# Use this scheme for two or more drives
if [ $numd -ge 2 ] ; then
cat << EOF >> /tmp/partinfo
YOUR SETUP --ondisk=$d1
YOUR SETUP --ondisk=$d2
EOF
else

# Use this scheme for one drive
cat << EOF >> /tmp/partinfo
YOUR SETUP --ondisk=$d1
EOF

fi

Hello all

I'm usually installing my systems with Software RAID 1 and have up to
now specified the hard drives to be used by their device names (/dev/hda
etc...), ie part raid.01 --bytes-per-inode=4096 --fstype="raid"
--ondisk=hda --size=10000

Is there a way to create the RAID without specifying --ondisk?
There will always be two disks on these systems, but not necessarily in
the same position each time.
