The version of gparted in my ppa doesn't rely on kpartx like the repository version. It should leave dev names alone but the repository version seems to screw them up adding a p in sometimes.
The next version of dmraid will leave the p in there, there is a discussion on this in this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+bug/554582

In addition to this ubiquity (the installer) doesnt seem to be able to repartition dmraid drives at all. Its best to create the partitions using gparted and install without modifying the partition table.

Back to the bug!

The new output gives me exactly what I want to know! (finally)

I've written a script which dumps the data at those locations and then compresses them.
