partman-auto raid recipie

I am trying to make a "partition recipie" to create a raid1 volume:

/dev/sda1 1 62 497983+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda2 63 1169 8891977+ fd Linux raid autodetect

/dev/sdb1 1 8678 8886256 fd Linux raid autodetect


/dev/md0 = sda2 + sdb1 - raid1 - mount /

Might want to do raid0 if the install will run quicker. (just testing things right now, the resulting install won't live for more than a few hours.)

http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/en.i386/apbs04.html says
"It is currently not possible to partition multiple disks using preseeding nor to set up RAID or LVM. Copyright © 2004, 2005, 2006 the Debian Installer team

but then http://packages.debian.org/unstable/debian-installer/partman-auto-lvm says: "Automatically partition storage devices using LVM"

So I am not really sure what can/can't be done.
