231 * setup-storage/Parser.pm: RAID device parsing: $2 doesn't refer to the
232 original expression anymore, store earlier $2 as $opts; don't use options
233 sub-hash (thanks Andreas Schockenhoff for lots of testing and feedback).
234 setup-storage/Parser.pm: LVM volume groups or RAID arrays may now refer to
235 diskX to use the entire disk (thanks Mathieu Alorent).

237 non-existing (user error) devices in estimate_size; don't do stupid divide
238 by 2 in RAID1 setup. (closes: #525138)

240 "missing" option.

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