I have boot raid running with mandrake 7.0 but I had to roll my own. I don't
think the installer can handle raid, although diskdrake made it easy to set
up the partitions and raidtab.
You need to compile raid into the kernel.
read the raid how-to and boot-raid how-to
there is a linux-raid list that might be helpful
