Bug Description
It appears that mdcfg does not perform any error checking upon calling mdadm:
the md_create_
unlikely that something does wrong, it is confusing that the installer "hides"
the error and appears to succeed.
Should this be regarded as a completely bogus request, I'm sorry for the noise.

I did check the code and there is no need to perform such sanity check since they are all done way before invoking mdadm.
