Ok, the problem is that you are trying to combine two different types of
software RAID on your system. If your root device in SuSE is something
like /dev/mapper/nv_blah, then I suggest you do not use Linux software
RAID in Ubuntu, and answer yes to the SATA RAID question when you re-
install, which is what you will have to do.

Theoretically these two different software RAID implementations should
work together, but practically they don't, and there is no point
combining two software RAID setups, one sitting on top of the other.

SATA RAID is referred to as such because while it is Software RAID that
is set up using metadata written to your disks by your computer's BIOS,
it is not the same as Linux Software RAID, so there has to be a way to
tell the difference. If you can think of a better way to describe it,
I;d be interested in hearing your suggestino, as I am not fond of the
definition SATA RAID, but have been unable to think of a better one as
of yet.

Hope this all makes sense.
