[Cooker] upgrade broken with raid fs

[Garrick Staples]

I just tried doing an upgrade install and found warning, RAID_AUTORUN
not supported by kernel... so it can't find a root fs to upgrade.

Furthermore, I can't backup to choose a different installation class.
The No root partition... popup window just keeps popping up.

raid had never been compiled in in the boot kernel
so no raid autodetect is present
you can save your raidtab in /boot ( you have a normal partition as boot 
right ?)
and recreate the raid from console befor chosing the instalation type

Ah hell, I dunno... that machine has been reinstalled a dozen times in
the last week.  I'm just trying to find when cooker breaks.  The above
process should be described in the install docs.

But this should be fixable.
