do we need somethings like this?

disk_config sdb
logical - size_sda1 default ext2

this means make this partition the same size as sda1. Isn't this needed
for RAID setups?

How can I specify the size of the partitions sda1 and sdd1 in the
example above? I think I can do it with the default lines for a
partition but without specifying a mount point (or using -). Am I right?
