Comments/Problems:
I had some issues with getting software raid to work at first, but after a bit of playing i got it all working. If there's some good documentation provided for this it should be ok. Also there should be a note that lilo has to be installed on the RAID devices and on the actual disks itself. Took me several tries of entering sda/sdb and it's partitions to figure that out. Also, the kernel module detection detects too much modules, and a few of them fail to load. Those modules appear to be general modules (i have no exact names of them), and everything worked well without them loaded though. Good job on this installer! It's really a good thing :)
