Yeah, I think that's the issue. Should the ls list MD127 as part of the list of devices? How do I get GRUB to do that? Seems like there's a problem with the installer and/or GRUB itself, since I stipulated the RAID in the partition step of the installation. So, in the meantime, how do I get

This post also lists the problem with mdadm calling the RAID MD127 instead of MD0: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1764861 Sounds like there are a lot of problems with the installer, or the components of the installer getting the settings right for a RAID install. -- You received this
