LVM on software RAID - LILO



Hi there,

I've had a go at installing a system using the pre-rc2 netinst image. With the 
install I have 2 x HDD which I have setup a software RAID for in partman 
(/dev/md/0). I have then fired up a console and used pvcreate and vgcreate to 
create LVM groups. Going back to partman, it recognises the LVM VG and allows 
me to setup logical volumes. All goes smooth and I have an LV partition 
with /root mounted on it and a number of other LV's. No complaints from the 
installer, but when I get to installing the boot loader (LILO) it bombs out 
and will not let me install to /dev/md/0. I was expecting to see GRUB as the 
boot loader as this has been in previous releases? But I guess GRUB might 
have failed too. So I'm a bit stuck how to get this to work. Any help greatly 
appreciated.

TIA, Dan
