Ubuntu Installation on Mirrored Root Disks

[Graham Jenkins]

I was Really Disappointed to find that Ubuntu won't let me do an
installation on (software) mirrored root disks.   Like .. if it can be
done with RedHat 9, SuSe 9.1, etc. .. why can't it be done with
Ubuntu??

I actually tried to copy an unmirrored root partition onto a RAID1
partition, then boot from the latter .. but kept getting problems with
pivot_root.

So .. is there some patch out to fix this yet??
