upto CentOS-5 the installer will create a raid-1 with sync-delayed set,
which allows the installer to finish the install and reboot fairly
quickly. It does however create some interesting situations if one was
to lose a disk soon after install, and if it was the first member of the
setup :)
good news is that this function is now gone in newer anaconda's. so
installing with 2x2TiB disks is expected to take between 3 to 3.5 hrs.
