197 * setup-storage/Parser.pm: RAID device parsing: $2 doesn't refer to the
198 original expression anymore, store earlier $2 as $opts; don't use options
199 sub-hash (thanks Andreas Schockenhoff for lots of testing and feedback).
200 setup-storage/Parser.pm: LVM volume groups or RAID arrays may now refer to
201 diskX to use the entire disk (thanks Mathieu Alorent).
202 * setup-storage/Sizes.pm: Properly deal with missing (as in RAID specs) or
203 non-existing (user error) devices in estimate_size; don't do stupid divide
204 by 2 in RAID1 setup. (closes: #525138)

206 "missing" option.

210 (thanks William Francis for suggesting this).
211 * setup-storage/Volumes.pm: Fixed perl syntax error, properly handle
212 existing empty volume groups (thanks Brian Kroth and Cajus Pollmeier for
213 debugging this). (closes: #532321)
214 * man/setup-storage.8: Document possible problems with previous software
215 RAID partitions and missing bootable flags.

226 [ Thomas Lange ]
