When running the installer, the interface allows the user to setup LVM or RAID 
in a friendly fashion.

The explanation on installing from an existing Unix system makes no mention of 
setting these up.

Since one of the reasons for installing from an existing system is to avoid 
downtime, it is likely to be popular on server systems. These will typically 
use RAID.

Setting up mdadm and a custom initrd manually are quite daunting tasks, 
although the debian installer makes them much simpler.
A parallel to this for installing from an existing *nix is thus very desirable.
