Title:
  mdadm should be used for fakeraid (instead of dmraid)

Bug description:
  mdadm now support external metadata and can hadle fakeraid better than dmraid:
  https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/RAID_setup#External_Metadata
  http://download.intel.com/design/intarch/PAPERS/326024.pdf

  It seems that dmraid is no more developed (only maintenance), so
  ubuntu should use mdadm instead of dmraid for fakeraid.

  Actually, it's not possible to setup a new ubuntu install with mdadm
  fakeraid (tried 12.04 and 12.10 alpha 2 alternate cd): only dmraid is
  offered.
