It tryes to add a non raid partition to the array and ignores the raid
partition. This causes the initalisation of md0 to fail.
Is this a kernel or anaconda bug?

So I backuped my data dan tryed a reinstall and it detected the md0
array in diskdruid but showed "foreign" as filesystem..
did edit and set mount point to / and filesystem ext3
but it failed formating it with a messages saying that it failed and
that I should press enter to reboot the system.
What happend? How could such things happen with a *final* release? Raid
support seems broken and nobody has noticed.
I always updated my system from RH9->FC1->FC2->FC3->FC4 (then
reinstalled FC4 because of i386->x86_64) but it seems that upgrade is no
more possible to FC5 :(
I'd suggest you switch to console once Anaconda loads and mount the MD0
by hand.
It should give you a way to circumvent the bug.
