<blockquote type="cite">
<pre wrap="">I have a Dell XPS 710 w/RAID 0 config which has my XP install on it,
all working fine and dandy.
Have installed a 3rd hard drive (500G Seagate) and trying to install
Ubuntu 8.10 onto that as a dual boot.
Have been able to run through setup/install numerous times, (like,
30??) but keep having problems once it is done, think I specifically
need help with GRUB,,,?

If you bios supports loading off the 3rd hard drive... no what's needed
is to have grub installed on the boot sector of the first hard drive.
That grub will point to the 3rd hard drive for config and a list of
options which will then boot off any of the disks.
But it's not easy to set up, you need to know what your doing with that
kind of setup.
Let us know if you'd like some help with it.

You can always use gparted on system rescue cd to add and the 3rd drive
to the raid and repartion the raid to have a separate Linux partition.<br>
