This is likely a cause of bug 191119 and bug 568183 as well. However, those bugs are not dups; in those bugs existing RAID partitions are corrupted, even if they aren't used during the install. Looking at this report, I would guess the RAID partition corruption is because the installer is trying to use that NEW_LABEL command on the incorrectly detected file systems on the devices comprising the RAID array. The root cause of those bugs is those incorrectly detected file systems. See those bugs for details. Until those bugs are fixed, I would VERY STRONGLY not recommend installing on a production system, or even a test system for that matter.

Jason and Ben: very well done investigating this. Collin: not-so-well done.
