This worked for me. It adds the --device option to each raid line.

part raid.01 --size=300  --ondisk=sda --asprimary
part raid.02 --size=300  --ondisk=sdb --asprimary
part raid.11 --size=1024 --ondisk=sda --asprimary
part raid.12 --size=1024 --ondisk=sdb --asprimary
part raid.21 --size=1    --ondisk=sda --asprimary --grow
part raid.22 --size=1    --ondisk=sdb --asprimary --grow
raid /boot --fstype ext3 --level=RAID1 --device=md0 raid.01 raid.02
raid swap  --fstype swap --level=RAID1 --device=md1 raid.11 raid.12
raid /     --fstype ext3 --level=RAID1 --device=md2 raid.21 raid.22
