Ok. I've just tried net install from factory again. The only difference I
noticed is a long delay (several minutes maybe) before the "Preparing discs..."
progress bar appears (That is, just after I confirm to proceed with formatting
etc...) The error message is still the same.
Now, I switched to the terminal and typed "dmraid -ay" (as a random guess)
After that all existing partitions wonderfully appeared.
/proc/partitions:
253 0 488383488 dm-0
253 1 10241406 dm-1
253 2 1051648 dm-2
253 3 6289408 dm-3
253 4 31455232 dm-4
/dev/mapper/:
control isw_xxx_Volume0 isw_xxx_Volume0p1 isw_xxx_Volume0p2 isw_xxx_Volume0p3
isw_xxx_Volume0p4
Note that the naming of partitions under /dev/mapper/ is not exactly the same
as the installer expects ("isw_xxx_Volume0p4" vs. "isw_xxx_Volume0_part4").
So my guess is:
1) "dmraid -ay" (or equivalent) is missing in the installer somewhere.
2) The installer uses wrong naming for dm-raid partitions (*_partX instead of
*pX)
