Oh, I missed it in the log the first time; grub-probe did detect ext2 on /dev/md0. But that was on the installed system right?

Grub should not need mdadm for grub-probe to work. Whenever I install on raid, I never have the boot loader fail to install; just have to remember to chroot in after and install mdadm before rebooting or the installed system won't boot past the initramfs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1696184 Title: out of the box install crashes. works fine on developer's machine. nice QA as usual.

confirmed. a true dup of #880766 from 2011. Today is 2017 and installing ubuntu on software raid is still unsupported scenario. this is ubuntu... workaround: 1. install w/o the bootloader (undocumented switch!) sudo ubiquity -b 2. chroot into target system, install mdadm, switch grub-pc to grub-efi, profit. root@ubuntu-gnome:/root/tsta# mount /dev/mapper/root_crypt /tgt root@ubuntu-gnome:/root/tsta# mount -o bind /dev /tgt/dev root@ubuntu-gnome:/root/tsta# mount -o bind /dev/pts /tgt/dev/pts root@ubuntu-gnome:/root/tsta# mount -o bind /sys /tgt/sys root@ubuntu-gnome:/root/tsta# mount -o bind /proc /tgt/proc root@ubuntu-gnome:/root/tsta# cat /etc/resolv.conf > /tgt/etc/resolv.conf root@ubuntu-gnome:/root/tsta# mount /dev/md0 /tgt/boot root@ubuntu-gnome:/root/tsta# chroot /tgt root@ubuntu-gnome:/# mount /dev/sda1 /boot/efi root@ubuntu-gnome:/# apt-get install mdadm Reading package lists...
