** Description changed:

  During install, a raid was not recognized. Apparently the installer
  searches for /dev/m/0 where the existing raid is defined to reside on
  /dev/md0.
  
  "ln /dev/md0 /dev/md/0 -s" enabled me to continue with the install
  successfully.
  
- Further on, the system wont boot. after applying the above line to the
- target volume, I was able to boot.
+ Further on, the system wont boot. At thie stage I generated an
+ mdadm.conf which seemed to force generating the raid.
+ 
+ In Dapper and Edgy these operations and especially the creation of
+ mdadm.conf where not necessary. From looking at the log it seems that
+ /dev/md0 WAS created during the kernel boot but was closed in favor of a
+ "/dev/md/n" construct (which might be good for newly generated raids but
+ not for existing ones).
