Bug Description
reproduce:
- boot installer
- zero disks with "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=512 count=1" etc. for all disks
- reboot
- boot installer
- setup two partitions on two disks, create md1 from the first and md2 from the second each time.
- try to setup crypt on the second, while doing that reboot (don't finish the "erase", but all metadata
has been written to disk already).
- boot installer
- partition with "manual"
- select raid config
- try to remove md0 or md1 - doesn't work
vc4 shows: "/dev/md/1 - no such file or directory" (~ / from memory).
that is of course wrong, the path should be "/dev/md1" without that extra slash.

as quick fix I tried this:
cd /dev/md
ln -s ../md1 1
ln -s ../md0 0
and then mdcfg worked fine.
