[Bug 1277800] Re: Fails to install to intel RAID-0 disk on Dell Precision T5500

[Phillip Susi]

The system installed to the raid array, but grub tried to install to the
individual disk.  You need to choose manual partitioning and make sure
grub is set to install to the raid array.

Note that if you are not dual booting with Windows, it is best to avoid
the use of bios fake raid and stick to traditional linux software raid,
which is much better supported.

Title:
  Fails to install to intel RAID-0 disk on Dell Precision T5500

Status in “grub-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Trying to install to a raid-0 disk comprising 2 x 500GB disks (1TB striped).
  Installer seems to partition each disk (sda1 and sdb1) differently, and does not partition the raid volume itself?
