I see the same problem using Gutsy 7.10 on an MSI MB with ICH9R and two
Seagate Barracuda SATA drives. I first installed XP on the fresh drives
setup as RAID1. Then I attempted to install kubuntu. Dmraid was able to
activate the volume fine and I added an extended partition and logical
partitions for linux using fdisk. I then created file systems (ext3 &
swap) on the newly created logical partitions. After creating the file
systems, dmraid would no longer activate the partitions. /dev/mapper has
only a control file. dmesg shows:

device-mapper: table :254:0 mirror: Device lookup failure
device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table

I tried changing partition UUIDs to make them unique between the
mirrored drives, but it had no effect. It seems to be related to having
created file systems on the partitions.
