 I have a system with a SCSI hardware RAID - the RAID makes ukp device
 /dev/sda.  I want to use EVMS on it but not use an initrd for it.  I
 created partitions for /boot (/dev/sda1) and / (/dev/sda2) which is
 /mnt/gentoo at this point. However, EVMS can not handle the fact that
 /dev/sda already has two partitions. From what I can see looking at the
 docs and the forums it needs the bd-claim patch applied but that's not
 done on the LiveCD so how do I set up my EVMS without an initrd?  The
 livecd doesn't give any options for that.

Did you create the partitions with fdisk? If yes try removing them again and 
recreate them using evmsn. It could also be helpful to turn them into EVMS 
volumes.

Yes, it does.  After more reading of the  docs I think I'll have to recreate 
them with EVMS instead of  cfdisk.  Then I'll have to resign myself to booting 
with an initrd file.
