Public bug reported:
I downloaded the alternate cd for 7.04
(http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-beta-alternate-i386.iso) to
mess around with the installer. One issue that occurred to me was that
it would allow the user to assign /boot to a RAID0 array. This works
grandly, right up until you get to the grub-install phase. grub and
lilo both fail to install at this point, and the installation is wasted.
AFAIK, booting from a raid0 partition created by the installer just
isn't possible. It seems fairly trivial logically (without knowing the
code behind the installer) that it should be able to check if the
current partition is raid0 when trying to assign /boot, and disallow it.
This might save some people a bit of confusion and wasted time later on.
