Googled:  raid hostname

I haven't used a RAID in years and that was under Windows NT and
OpenBSD.  Seems like the installer should ask though, I remember that
question from a few days ago when using an install disk to get into
rescue mode (i386/686).  If you really didn't get asked (debian was
the default I saw), that might be a legitimate bug.
