Hi all,

I can confirm this bug and was lucky enough to find the bug report for
it. I installed Ubuntu Server 10.04 64-bit on a machine with multiple
RAID1 configurations (mdadm) working and was attempting to build a RAID1
with 2x 500gb drives for the OS.

Couldn't figure out why a fresh install of the OS wouldn't work and was
getting worried since I have mdadm running a 2x2tb, and a pair of 2x1tb
RAID1's. I thought the error might be relating to all of those RAID
configurations confusing the installer somehow. It wasn't.

I got the error messages mentioned above.

It looks like there was an error partitioning the drives; after
carefully manually partitioning the drives (USING the installer, I
suppose this could have been done with fdisk) I left 100 megabytes of
free space as per the post of Thomas Krause. The other change I made was
NO to "do you want the system to boot if one of the OS drives is
degraded?". I think it was the partitioning change that fixed the
problem.

Anyways, after the 2nd install Ubuntu Server boots fine, automatically
recognizes all my arrays and life is beautiful.
