I will sedon brian on this. The Server install disks install lean so you only install the parts you want. and they have better disk installation options including various raid options.

I just snag the server install disks by default these days.  They have not problem at all with installing a system with RAID.  After the initial install, just install the [kxl]?ubuntu-desktop package to get whatever desktop you want.  The only downside is that all the deskstop packages will have to come over the network so your install will take quite a bit lot longer unless you are stilling behind a cache that is repopulated or set APT to use the packages from the desktop CD.

There no longer seems to be any alternative CDs/DVDs etc for
Ubuntu/Kubuntu that support software raid during the installation.

I've seen several pages that talk about how to set it up, but it assumes
you have an alternative DVD.

Any suggestions of places I should look?
