I think this is very related. When I tried installing dmraid in a live-cd, it detected the /dev/mapper entries and everything quite flawlessly, but it failed to install because the raid driver choked. I think it was installed but not installed to the kernel itself.

What I think is happening is that dmraid is installed but the kernel initramfs was not regenerated. This is interesting to me since it's just an LKM and shouldn't require a reboot (which is impossible with a live-cd), but somehow it is exhibiting the behaviour of needing to reboot.

So perhaps the fix that worked on the desktop edition needs to be applied to the server edition as well?
