Title:
  No ability to set chunk size for mdadm during Ubuntu Server
  installation routine

Status in debian-installer package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When setting up a Linux software RAID array inside the Ubuntu Server
  install routine (which uses mdadm), beyond the ability to specify
  array members and personality, there is no ability to tweak the chunk
  size.  The chunk size defaults to 512KB which would be suitable for a
  very specific set of uses but quite suboptimal for others.  The
  underlying hardware is also a factor, as SSDs benefit from a much
  smaller chunk size due to high performance at high queue depths
  regardless of use case.
