I'm having the same issue installing 10.04 Server on a Supermicro 6013P-T using
two identical 500GB Seagate drives. The installation proceeds fine, grub says
it installs, and upon reboot I get this mount error:
mount: mounting /dev/disk/by-uuid/ on /root/ failed: Invalid argument
The UUID for md
I've now tried just installing on a single 500GB Seagate (different drive, was
going to be a spare in my RAID1 array), and it won't boot either. This error is:
mount: mounting /dev/sda1 on /root failed: No such device
However in initramfs I'm able to mount /dev/sda1 /root with no problems.
I don'
I zero'd the drives using dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd{a,b,c} bs=4k and
still the system will not boot after install completes, with the same
"mounting failed: invalid argument". I also have the md1p1 device as
does Dustin.
If I boot into Live CD or even Recovery mode off of the 10.04 Server CD
I ca
I believe I accept all defaults up until partitioning. At that point I
created automatic partitions on all 3 x 500GB SATA drives. I designed
the first partition (sda1,sdb1,sdc1) on all 3 drives as bootable. I then
create md0 setting sda1 and sdb1 as the active drives and sdc1 as the
spare. I click
I'm at work for the day, I'll try your suggestion tonight. Note that I
have tried to install to a single disk, no RAID, though I did give it a
swap partition and I also did not zero the drive (described in comment
#24).

Imre, your suggestion worked. I zeroed the first several MB of the disk
and performed the mdadm --zero-superblock as recommended by ceg in bug
#527401. I did the install the same, except I manually created the
partition and did not create swap.
I then tried installing on RAID1 again, the only dif
And with no partitions the server won't even boot, I get an "operating
system not found" message.
I give up, I've spent 20 or more hours across a dozen or more installs
with 4 different hard drives in this server, and no version of Ubuntu
from 9.10 to 10.04 Alpha 2 to now has been able to get RAID
Sorry, comment 31 should say "with no swap partitions".

I gave up on the Supermicro and last night successfully installed on a
newer Dell 860 with 2 x 250GB drives. I will be installing on my 500GB
drives tonight and will let you know if the problem occurs there. I've
also got two 750GB drives I can try.

32-bit Ubuntu 10.04 for me. I performed the same install on 500GB drives
that I had done successfully on the Dell 860 with 250GB drives last
night, and it failed with the Invalid Argument message. As strange as it
sounds, the 500GB drives is the only common denominator. I zeroed and
