On Hardy all distros (including server!) do not correctly implement Raid
1 together with crypted partitions or lvm.

The whole installation process requires a well thought out strategy
taking into consideration that the initramfs of a degraded system might
be inappropriate and that it is not possible to create a new image
before the system is up again...

With degraded arrays it all depends on the type of raid.

For raid 1 (mirroring) the user might well decide to continue booting
(automatically or after manual confirmation?).

For other raid types this is high risk, but in some special cases might
be necessary.
