I was unable to install Ubuntu-8.04.1 LTS server i386 on an ASUS A7V600
with on-board Via fakeraid. I found this bug report, and attempted to
install the today snapshot intrepid-alternate-i386.iso. This one
installs fine. The fakeraid array is detected properly.

However, I wanted to install the server version, so I downloaded
intrepid-server-i386.iso as well. This one also detects the raid array
properly, and the installation begins, but then it fails with a red
background complaining it cannot install the base system. On console F4
the last message is that it cannot find dmraid. Needless to say its
impossible to continue the installation from this point on.

I have repeated this using a 2 disk RAID-1 array twice, and a 2 disk
RAID-0 array also twice. Both fail consistently. I have then tried to
install this server version on a single disk (non-raid), and this one
succeeds.

Could it be that the solution for the desktop version is not implemented
or not properly implemented for the intrepid server (alpha) edition yet?
