Bug Description
In Ubuntu 8.10 Server and alternate. When you try to install Ubuntu with a RAID (tested with RAID 1) setup, when writing changes to disk the following warning appears:
---
[!] Partition disks
Warning!
The kernel was unable to re-read the partition table on /dev/md0 (Invalid argument). This means Linux won't know anything about the modifications you made until you reboot. You should reboot your computer before doing anything with /dev/md0.
<Go Back> <Continue>
---
When rebooting the system the same message will come again, but continuing anyway resulted in an operational RAID and Ubuntu instalation.
Aditional information:
I've tested this with SATA HDDs and I think they're unfortunately on the same bus.
The same thing happens in the alternate cd of Hardy Heron x86_64 8.04.2. In 8.04.1 the issue was not present.
