Based on some reading, it seems that I should be able to use kickstart with the PRE scripts to do this. However, after trying for a couple of hours, it doesn't seem that anaconda will allow it, it just boots the created arrays. At best I end up with a list of softraid partitions instead.
Am I trying the impossible or has anybody done this before and can point to a resource how on this can be done?
Can you do what you want via the GUI installer? Potentially by dropping into a shell to do parts of it (eg build the raid array degreaded, then use the GUI to install onto that). If so, manually do an install and then look at /root/anaconda-ks.cfg to see what file that built out. It might provide the hints you need.
