Same problem here with ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64 (21ec41563ff34da27d4a0b56f2680c4f), but with booting on a live DVD. I already have ubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386 installed on one of the hard drives, but haven't been able to do a clean install or test of ubuntu-13.10-desktop-amd64 due to running into the busy box - initramfs wall.
