Summary 0000804: Community Edition installer does not include support for RAID 5 / 6
Description The Community Edition installer shipped with the original 4.2 release does not include support for RAID 5 (and the less frequently used RAID 6).

If you are upgrading a system via CD with a RAID 5 configuration, the installer will fail and you will not be able to proceed with the upgrade. The system remains intact and you can safely reboot back into your old version. Upgrades via the network using "apt-get" are not affected by this issue.
Additional Information In Linux kernel versions 2.6.9-x used by previous versions of ClarkConnect, the kernel drivers for RAID 5 and 6 were raid5 and raid6 respectively. This has changed to a single raid456 driver in Linux 2.6.18-x. The installer needed to be modified to reflect this change.
