What we do is start the install on a partition which will later become
swap, then when we have a workable system, set up the md devices by hand
and cp -a the installation over to the md device.
We don't seem to have any problems with 2.2.15 + new raid patches, btw.

Ouch. That's good to know, as we were just going to RAID1 the swap on a
machine which does swap.
