not booting from disk

I let class/10-base-classes do the "find out how what server we have" trick by checking how many disk boxes are connected to the raid controller and based on that result echo AP or DB server as a class. 
that way hooks/partition.DB-server is called which simply creates arrays on the raid controller and then disk_config/DB-server is used as config for setup-storage. (I'll paste that file below). 

setup now fails on something new: 
after "mdadm --examine etc" the setup fails on 
use of uninitialized value in multiplication (*) at /usr/share/fai/setup-storage//Sizes.pm line 650. 
use of uninitialized value in multiplication (*) at /usr/share/fai/setup-storage//Sizes.pm line 650. 
use of uninitialized value in multiplication (*) at /usr/share/fai/setup-storage//Sizes.pm line 654. 
use of uninitialized value in multiplication (*) at /usr/share/fai/setup-storage//Sizes.pm line 654.

INTERNAL ERROR in setup-storage: 
convert_unit B 
Please report.... 
Traceback: task_error task_partition task task_install task task_action task main 

What is wrong in my disk_config file?: 
# raid controller heeft volgende indeling: 
# logical drive 1 R1 68G (os) 
# logical drive 2 R1 558G (backup) 
# logical drive 3 R6 546G (mysql) 
# logical drive 4 R1 68G (log)

Thanks for helping me!
