Did you *only* create hda1 and hdc1? I vaguely remember a similar problem. And my workaround was to do only those two, then immediately use the RAID button to make md0. After md0 is created, create hda2 and hdc2, then RAID again to make md1.
And you should have no problem making any of the md devices a swap partition (just choose swap instead of ext2/ext3/reiserfs/LVM/etc.).
Yes, I create hda1 and hdc1 as "Software Raid" then hit the RAID button. It says md0 and the partitions are hda1 and hdc1 I select RAID1, but when I hit OK and look at the display of partitions it indicates hda1 and hda2 and hdc reads unused.
Crazy I know!
