Bug#612880: debian-installer: Cannot create a partition on a disk, if it was a part of a RAID10
Package: debian-installer
Severity: important
Partman (squeeze d-i) cannot create/destroy partition table on a disk
in a _manual_ partitioning mode,
if disk was a part of a RAID10 (in my case). Can't say for other RAID levels.
Steps:
1. partman asks if I want to create a new partition table, I answer "yes"
2. partman detects, that a disk was a part of RAID10 and asks if it is OK to
proceed (warning me, that everything will be removed if I answer "yes")
3. I answer "yes" and start partitioning the disk
4. steps 1-2 reoccur
To solve the problem, I had to go with a guided partitioning, which
successfully created all partitions, then again thru a manual partitioning, so
I could repartition a disk, as I wanted.
