234 * setup-storage/Parser.pm: RAID device parsing: $2 doesn't refer to the
235 original expression anymore, store earlier $2 as $opts; don't use options
236 sub-hash (thanks Andreas Schockenhoff for lots of testing and feedback).

238 diskX to use the entire disk (thanks Mathieu Alorent).

241 by 2 in RAID1 setup. (closes: #525138)

243 "missing" option.

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