I am running Mint 9 using the post from Konstantinos on May 16 from this thread. I imagine this is mostly relevant to Ubuntu 10.4 as well. For the most part, it seems to work fine. However there are two things that are odd. When I get to the end of the install procedure where I run these commands:
grub-install /dev/mapper/isw_jfighfbah_My_RAID update-grub I get about 5 warnings of a memory leak from the install command and about 10 more from the update. This sounds similar to what Martin Lucich reported on 5/12. But it does reboot afterwards without issue. The second thing which seemed odd is when I went to install my Xilinx software. I'm installing to /opt/Xilinx which has about 170GB free based on right clicking the folder and looking at its properties. However, the Xilinx installer says I have insufficient disc space (it shows 0 GB free). What's funny is that it asks if I want to install anyway. I say yes, and the software works afterwards. This software does see my drives correctly under OpenSuse11.2 using the same partition setup. So while there are workarounds to get this OS usable, there are still some lingering issues related to the handling of the fake raid arrays. For the record, I am using two 1TB drives under Intel Matrix Raid (ICH10R). The first 100GB of each drive is striped and used for / and swap, the other 900GB from each drive is mirrored and mounted as /home. All partitions except swap are ext4. I'm still pretty new to Linux in general, but I'm willing to help test and get this resolved.
