RAID 5 I am not sure of.

Don't you install from Yast?  I am pretty sure the configuration of the
bootloader is a part of what can be configured via the Yast install setup.

It may not work with Raid 5, but it does with Raid 1.  So it is limited

isn't that it is software Raid, but the array type.  Raid 1 works great.
