My setup is 2 x 1TB SATA disks configured as Raid 1. 500GB primary partition has Vista Ultimate 64bit installed. I wanted the rest of the volume for Ubuntu 9.04 amd64, but couldn't get it to install via ubiquity without crashing. I have got it to work ok using the Alternate CD. This recognises the raid set up, and it installs with no problem. Afterwards, though, I had to edit /etc/grub/menu.lst to add Windows as an option on boot up.

System setup Trying to install 9.04 amd64 from livecd onto nvraid, raid0. Root partition is ext4 and home partition is xfs on the same disk within an extended partition. Ubiquity seems to crash after the "scanning the mirror" section of the install. -- ubiquity crashed with InstallStepError in configure_bootloader() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260001 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. Status in “ubiquity” source package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Binary package hint: ubiquity This is probably a duplicate of closed/dormant bug 71984, but I have opened a new one because it occurred on Intrepid alpha 4 and I want to be sure you have an up-to-date set of documentation. I suspect the crash is caused by my choice of an install that has fallen outside the validation box. I was trying to install a standalone intrepid system on a new partition of a multiboot machine. However, in manual partitioning I did NOT mount the existing grub partition as /boot. I guess the install was confused when trying to install another grub boot loader. I will retry the installation with the existing /boot mounted.
