If I understand correctly, I think your trying to partition your raid device.
Which isn't possible.
You'll want to either:
1. Create multiple raid arrays and mount them to your various filesystems
2. Create an LVM and use that to spread out your filesystems

The sarge installer has this all built into the disk paritioning util.
