RAID on 6.0-RC1

Anyone running RAID on 6.0-RC1, specifically twed?

When booting from the 6.0-RC1 install CD, I'm getting twed0 found on 
probing.  The results look right.  But then the install freezes (I 
waited an hour). I have a screen shot which produced with a boot -v:

Similar results happen with a 5.4 CD but not a 4.9CD, which gets into 
the installer.  The RAID array is RAID-1 and both disk are 80GB (a 
Seagate and a Maxtor).  I left the system to sit overnight, but this 
morning, the screen looks as shown above.

The twed device in question is a 3Ware 7006-2 attached to an ASUS AV8-
Deluxed running an AMD 64 3000+.  FWIW, I can't get the onboard PATA 
RAID to work either (Promise 20378 controller).
