Yup, that bug is likely the cause of the corruption of the RAID partitions. If I had to make a guess, that NEW_LABEL command was being used on the incorrectly detected file systems, thus overwriting RAID data. I have no idea how that command works so please correct me if that can't be the case.

However, an underlying issue with this bug (and bug 191119) is the installer incorrectly detecting those defunct file systems on the devices comprising the RAID array. Because of that, I'm hesitant to call it a dup, but I don't care so long as the bugs get fixed.

As for bug 191119, are you saying the NEW_LABEL command wasn't used on earlier versions of the installer?
