Title:
  Fails to install to intel RAID-0 disk on Dell Precision T5500

Status in “grub-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Trying to install to a raid-0 disk comprising 2 x 500GB disks (1TB striped).
  Installer seems to partition each disk (sda1 and sdb1) differently, and does not partition the raid volume itself?
