Markus Schmidt, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc3 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-4131 lucid ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592892 Title: Hardware [Intel 82801GR/GH] RAID enabled without confirmation in desktop install Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hardware RAID controller, disabled in card BIOS (no volumes in array), two HD's connected, both at same size, working as normal IDE A and B with completely different partitions. Fdisk -l after booting from desktop CD shows both drives as expected (sda/sdb with all partitions), gparted looks fine, too. No RAID mapping, no fakeraid, normal IDE behaviour. Starting installation and choosing manual partitioning shows only first drive as mapped devices. After installation sdb became a real clone of sda and both are combined as a RAID array (I tested with forensics, the contents are the same on both disks). I expected the same behavior as netboot and alternate install offers: You have to activate RAID *manually*. Automatic activation of RAID array (how? controller is still "unconfigured" in its BIOS) may be highly insecure for unexperienced users because of the risk of data loss. What confuses me is that the methods for experienced users (alternate/PXE) contain a simple switch, while the way to work around under graphical interface is uninstalling dmraid in the running live system via aptitude and remove dm_raid45 module afterwards manually. Then both disks will show as expected in manual partitioning. If it's not a bug but a feature, it should be clearly documented in the installation process I think. --- AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.20.
