Hi Laszlo,
whats the status of dmraid? Do you have dmraid hardware or is this
merely on life-support?

I'm wondering if we should remove dmraid support from the d-i as a
first step. AFAICT Intel Software RAID is supported by mdraid, not
sure if the other RAID platforms are still sold.
If its gone from di-i, at least no new installs can spring into
existence "by accident", i.e. where mdraid would have been the
better choice.
What do you, Laszlo and d-boot, think?
Chris
