CoreOS based ramdisk was not maintained for a while, you could try a rocky
release at https://tarballs.opendev.org/openstack/ironic-python-agent/dib/

Building an IPA ramdisk is moved from diskimage-builder to
ironic-python-agent-builder, you can find the document here:
https://docs.openstack.org/ironic-python-agent-builder/latest/

For an in-band RAID support, you'll need to create a new hardware manager
and implement some deploy steps to support RAID configuration,
specifically, the create_configuration and delete_configuration steps.
The following links may provide some starting points for you.

Hope this helps.
