Hi all,
since last version i sent to the mailing lists i made the following
changes:
- added the 'brtfs not booting' issue;
- added 'windows not added to grub list';
- removed the 'multiple cd issue' as it was closed.

- <dt>armel: root on RAID boot issue</dt>
- <dd>
- Please be aware that there is a problem if you choose to have root on RAID
- that will cause your machine not to start after installing Debian.
- Fortunately, there's a easy workaround: when the installer tells you that
- it's done and asks you whether you want to reboot, choose "Go back" and
- open a shell in the menu. Then use nano to edit the file
- <tt>/target/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/flash_kernel_set_root</tt> and remove
- the check that ensures the root device exists. Type exit, choose "Make the
- system bootable" and press okay at the "Installation complete" message.
