[Bug 1206952] Re: Fresh install 13.04 from Live usb stick to SSD (with 2 x RAID0 HDD)

[Rob Hills]

As I noted in my comments, I did NOT wish to install to the RAID HDDs,
the Ubuntu Installer did that.  I specifically selected /dev/sdc (an
SSD) as my installation target during setup.  I think there is a valid
bug here as the Installer tried to put Grub on a different drive from
the one that I'd targeted for the OS to be installed on.  I note this
was a straight, vanilla (apart from the LVM option) install of Ubuntu
13.04 onto a single SSD.  Specifically, this was NOT dual boot.

Also, not sure what you mean by "fakeraid".  This is a Hardware RAID set
up using the motherboard hdd controller.  Are you saying it's not a real
RAID controller and that I should use the Linux SW RAID instead?

  Fresh install 13.04 from Live usb stick to SSD (with 2 x RAID0 HDD)

Status in “grub-installer” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Trying to install fresh 13.04 onto a machine with a 128G SSD and 2 x
  1TB HDD in hardware RAID0.  I'm trying to get the OS onto LVM
  partitions on the SSD (just using the generic LVM install from the
  checkbox on the relevant dialog in the Install Wizard) and plan to use
  the HDDs for data etc, but I keep getting this Grub error.
