It used to work just fine, I did all my XServe tests in this setup, but recent udev fucked this up severly, by trying to mount LVM and RAID *before* the disks where mounted. This affects both d-i (where the /dev/sd* are not created) and initramfs-tools. Not sure if this is a similar problem or not.
