The release notes seem to indicate that lilo is gone in Fedora Core 4. It would be nice if the release notes described how people using root-fs on software raid-1 can make sure that grub writes the boot-loader to both disks.

I'm not sure this is the best place to make such a request and be sure its going to be seen by the "right" people.
Once you find someone who can write up a reasonable first draft of those instructions is to contact the fedora-docs-list or file a bugzilla entry with the instruction text. The release notes process creation is evolving, read: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraDocs_2fRelNotes_2fRelNotesProcess

I think the FC4 installer does make sure grub writes to both disks of sw raid-1.

I believe that is handled by anaconda automatically now; see this changelog entry:
* Sun Feb 20 2005 Peter Jones pjones@redhat.com - 10.2.0.21-1 - get rid of lilo - make grub work with raid1 /boot and /root

In theory, "upgrade" should do that.
In practice, I just started making sure upgrade would work for anything like that yesterday, so it might be a little bumpy at first.
