Hello Peter,
I have started proofreading the first part of "Advanced installation", 
and I made notes of my suggestions. Since this is the first time I do 
this for the server guide, I would like you to have a quick look at them 
below (each second line = my suggestion) and see if my work is useful.
If it is, I would like to make changes directly in the document, and 
then either send it to you, to this list or directly to LP. To file a 
bug for each suggestion is a bit cumbersome.

Advanced installation

Partitioning
3. Select the "FREE SPACE" on the first drive then select "Create a new 
partition".

5. Select the "Use as:" line at the top. By default this is "Ext4 
journaling file system", change that to "physical volume for RAID" then 
"Done setting up partition".

6. For the / partition once again select "Free Space" on the first drive 
then "Create a new partition".

RAID configuration

"Continue".

Degrading RAID
When this happens, using Software RAID, the operating system will place 
the array into what is known as a degraded state.
