FC7 install still lacks a feature

When configuring RAID arrays, advanced users should be offered the 
option to set the chunk size. And using ext3 or any other f/s which 
knows a little about RAID, the stride= option check be set to the size 
of a stripe, the number of data drives times the chunk size.

Booting a rescue or "Live-CD" and doing the partitioning will solve the 
first, not the 2nd.

And finally, support for encrypted f/s would be nice, I guess using 
dm-crypt to be portable, to allow vital things to be kept safe (/home, 
databases, etc). More laptops would use crypto if the users could figure 
out how!
