No! I did not find, up to now, how to re-use my previous partitioning: I
had two disks sda and sdb with two raid arrays md0 and md1 (software
raid 1).

On md0 / and swap

On md1 rest of system and data in lvm.


Installer sees sda, partitions on it (sda1, sda2....) and lvm; it sees
sdb as "unknown" and is unable to show the (mirror) partitions on it.


I don't want to erase anything and make a new raid-lvm partitions, the
job was done a long time ago and it fits my desires... why should I change?
