FYI after I muddled through the install a couple weekends ago by linking
or renaming stuff under /dev/mapper I ended up with a bootable system.
But the problem that persisted was grub-update (or whatever runs during
system updates) continued to try to write to /dev/sda which is one
element of my RAID5 group. I used the information from a post that
noted there was no /boot/device.map and created one on my system.
That resolved the last issue I was having. So apparently that file is
required for ongoing updates.

I also get screen fulls of messages about "you have a memory leak" but
you probably can't do anything about that.
