Same problem here, i tried to install Ubuntu 11.10 on a raid0 (Nvidia on-board raid). At the end of the installation i get the message "grub failed to install on /dev/mapper/nvidiaxxxxx" I also tried the alternate installation CD with out any success, same for multiple grub recovery tools.
The only workaround that i found is the same as mentioned in post N°2 by installing Ubuntu 10.10 and than upgrade to Ubuntu 11.10. But even then, the system is not stable, 1 of 2 boot session crash just after choosing Ubuntu from the Grub menu. On the same raid, Windows 7 is running as good as it can. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877986 Title: Ubuntu 11.10 fails to install on a nvidia onboard RAID0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/877986/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
