ubuntu server intrepid does not boot

[Bruno Pinto]

UPDATE

 the os is ubuntu server 8.10...

I've tried setting up grub from knopix but on setup command it reboots the
pc...

Also

I've entered safe mode, using the cd option "boot from first disk" because
it's the only way it boots, and started grub, did the root and setup
followed by a reboot to watch progress and nothing...

on the process i found something strange the boot drive was hd4,1 insted of
hd0,1 that i get from grub before inserting cd...

how to go arround this?

Hi all.

Sorry about my english and great thanks in advanced.

I'm building a data server it as :

              - amd Phenom 2 2.3 GHZ
              - 2X 2GB ddr2 800 Kingston
              - 4 sata2 500GB seagate
                     - two sets of raid 1
              - mobo msi k9a2gm v3
              - 40 GB ide for system

It works fine if drives are set to ide on mobo bios or with only ide
connected.

If i set raid on mobo the systems hangs after grub displaying only a
blinking cursor...

But if i run the install cd and choose "boot from first disk drive" it boots
normally.

I've being for hours trying to work this out and nothing, already tried gsd
and other and still nothing, what to do?

Thanks
