[Bug 1178294] Re: Install fails with Kubuntu 13.04 on UEFI system

[gigi]

@Steve Riley:
Is your Laptops one of those, which has a real harddisk AND a SSD inside (hybrid-harddisk) ?
If yes, then my research has lead me to the point, that the installer falsely assumes, there is a full operateable raid-controller inside, which is not.
