I'm not sure exactly what problem you refer to, but if it is incomplete
cryptoroot configuration when using a combination of RAID and crypto (as
your setup detailed below), then that is a known problem which is
documented in the errata and at
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/RAIDvsCrypto.
It will be fixed in the Lenny version of the installer sometime in the
future.

Ok, I'll take a look at this when I look at the same situation for
partman-lvm.
