Public bug reported:
I installed Oneiric beta2 on a laptop that has SATA RAID/fakeraid. The
installation process failed to install GRUB, and choosing to install
GRUB on another partition didn't work either.
However, I was able to install GRUB manually in the target chroot to
/dev/mapper/isw_eahgecdhea_Volume0.
This resulted in a system that could be booted but the boot would hang.
To get a working system, I had to manually clean up the chroot with the
following commands:
mv /sbin/initctl.REAL /sbin/initctl
mv /sbin/start-stop-daemon.REAL /sbin/start-stop-daemon
Before that, I could see messages "Warning: Fake initctl called, doing
nothing." but this didn't help me understand what was wrong before I
read the ubiquity scripts.
