When fai-setup-storage detects any old MDADM Softraid Partitions, it tries 
to 
assemble/start them even when Sofraid is not configured. That is the 
reason why we wrote partition.DEFAULT which cleans the harddisks:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda count=1 bs=512

I would also prefer if fai-setup-storage would not be "too smart" ;-)
