Ge,
Thanks! I am afraid that will still not address the issue of how I would partition the drive for the installation.

Here's the low-tech approach: put /boot on a memory stick, and boot from that (assuming your BIOS can be set to boot of a USD device). /boot usually only get access when you do kernel updates.
How about creating raid with two slices: one small (30GB) for installation and rest for data partition.
Anyway, with 18TB of raid 6 might cause performance problems .. raid 60 or raid 10 looks much better solution.

Eero,
I am going to look into how to create those slices; problem is, it may or may not be possible.
