Bug Description

Misc Kickseed raid handling problems

- The RAID line is ignored when the line has a fstype parameter like:

raid /boot --fstype ext2 --device md0 --level=1 raid.01 raid.02

Probably caused by a missing comma after "spares" here: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/trusty/kickseed/trusty-proposed/view/head:/handlers/raid.sh#L17

- prompt breaking automated installations: "Before RAID can be configured, the changes have to be written to the storage devices"

Seems to be solved by adding:

preseed partman-md/device_remove_md boolean true
preseed partman-md/confirm boolean true
preseed partman-md/confirm_nooverwrite boolean true

- fatal error: "An unexpected error occurred while setting up a preseeded RAID configuration"

It seems the second disk is not being partitioned.

I suspect it to be caused by: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/trusty/kickseed/trusty-proposed/view/head:/handlers/clearpart.sh#L19

ks_preseed d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/discs/disc0/disc0

Think it should be for RAID:

==
ks_preseed d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/discs/disc0/disc /dev/discs/disc1/disc
ks_preseed d-i partman-auto/method string raid
==

But haven't looked further into that.
