I have a computer set up with only a software raid 0 set up (2 hard disks). I already have made partitions for ext3 and swap. But how can I install ubuntu on my system now?
When I install through ubuntu alternate install disk (which detects my hard disks fine) when install finishes I cant load ubuntu because it complains about not being able to mount / or something like that..

- I did it all manually, also I set the / at the correct partition. I cannot switch the hard drives around because they are on a RAID 0 set up, which mean I will lose all data!
Boot seems to go fine as far as ubuntu go, and / point is set up properly, but it just halts when it tries to mount devices! I hope the problem is clearer now!

- I already have a windows partition but problem is not grub getting confused. As mentioned in the extra comments system halts when it tries to mount devices (not an I/O error)
Ok I have Duo booted ubuntu a couple of times now. When you were partitioning did you use the automatic or he manual? Since you have two hard disks, I will assume you use a desktop and you know how to take it apart. So, if you did automatics the bestt I can tell you is to swith your hard drives around physically and if that fails try switching g the boot menu order. If you used manual partitioning then when you were creating the ext3 partition you did not type / in the text box labeled Moint Point (that's the best I can help you) I hope this has fixed your problem. GO UBUNTU
I have yet to try RAID, but i want to. Best idea I've heard was from a guy that set up the first hard drive with a small /boot partition in addition to the swap and ext3 ones... I guess that way, GRUB didn't get confused.
