I created a RAID 0 array, with 2 partitions of 1.5 GB for 3.0 GB and then I noticed the RAID partition list reported 131 KB as "unusable". My HDDs are fine.

Bug Description
Binary package hint: debian-installer
The MD list then shows my 3.0 GB RAID 0 partition, but there's an entry underneath it that reports 131 KB unusable.
This occurs even when:
1. Both HDDs have way more than enough space for the partitions. I only created 2 1.5 GB partitions to have the root file system at the beginning portions of both HDDs.
2. The HDDs tested fine. (I doubt that I would get bad sectors from just turning on my PC after being off for a day.)
-------------
It seems to think that the partition on sdb1 isn't the same size, despite I told the installer to create a 1.5 GB partition on BOTH HDDs!
It looks like a sector offset issue.
