Ok, good.  If you could get the exact boot error message, it might help.
I just booted from the usb and the installer didn't produce an error message as such, after specifying the language to use it then said there were no selected disks, and when I selected that it did not show any disks in the local disk section and it did not appear to provide any mechanism to search for disks, similar to what it provides for network devices. I expected this to show the raid array plus the ssd which is not actually in any array, having explicitly removed all devices from the arrays they were in by default and only specified the 4 hard disks in a raid 10 array.

The uefi boot interface doesn't tell me what model raid it is in its configuration interface, nor does the configuration interface tool under windows, other than to say that it is an AMD-Raid.

I would recommend turning off the hardware RAID and using software RAID instead.

I was using a hardware raid, having used hardware raid 0 in the past, plus from what I have read in comparisons between hardware raid and software raid, hardware raid performs better. I just wasn't expecting there to be issues in using the raid array, having used hardware raid 0 in earlier versions of Fedora without encountering any issues with the installer being able to see it.


regards,

Steve
