As an alternate solution, did you actually try to install RedHat via the
SmartStart crap?  If you use their crappy little interface you get an
option to install an OS.  Just tell it you want to install a unix OS.  
The box will reboot and you will have a logical RAID drive at your 
disposal for doing the install.  The advantage of this approach is that
SmartStart will automatically link that OS as the booting OS once 
installation is complete.  So all you have to do is tell RedHat to 
write the boot record to the start logical drive, and you are all 
taken care of.  

In theory.
