I have set up hardware raid 1 with two SAS drives using the Adptec 6405E controller. I am having a problem when installing Ubuntu 10.04 LTS as it hangs at 43 % when partitioning disk drives. So far my Googling suggests that Ubuntu does not scan raided drives well. What can I do to finish my installation?

I'm a total new to uBuntu... and could use some help...
My iOmega Storcentre NAS crashed because of what appears to have been a Raid controller failure. I've been told that it runs Linux, and the drives are formatted in Ext3. I can no longer access the drives and I do not know the condition of the data on the two 1TB drives (RAID 1), as it may have been corrupted by the controller.
disks 0 and 1 are raid redundant (OS) and the remaining 6 drives are in raid 5 I believe. i would like to pull out disks 0 and 1 and install new drives to build a new OS. I need to be able to reinsert the old drives and reboot back to the original OS. (swap)
I had a serious problem in the past attempting this.
I have installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on 2 hardware raided DELL SAS drives using a SAS Controller model Adaptec 6405E. After installing the OS and loading custom drivers so that the OS sees the RAD array, I am getting an error on booting:
ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/033fabc6-4d94-482f-acc1-cb26c932748f does not exist.
I have a raid array of hard drives in a Sun x4600 that need to be moved out, and another Sun x4600 ready to accept those hard drives.
The problem is: in my limited experience with servers, it seems like hard drives added to a server always get wiped by the raid controller because the controller insists on "initializing" drives before recognizing them as a raid array.
Yes, I have backups.
Is it
I have a software raid 10 with 6 x 2tb hard drives (raid 1 for /boot), ubuntu 10.04 is the os.
I had a raid controller failure that put 2 drives out of sync, crashed the system and initially the os didnt boot up and went into initramfs instead, saying that drives were busy but I eventually managed to bring the raid up by stopping and assembling the drives.
The os booted up and said that there we
On my Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit installation, I had built a raid0 consisting of 2x 320 GB Hitachi Deskstar drives using the Disk Utility. Because my ubuntu install got messed up, I reinstalled Ubuntu same version.
Now when I go to the Disk Utility, I can see that Ubuntu sees those drives as being part of a raid. Please see screenshots for information displayed.
I checked in GParted.
I have a Dell Poweredge 2950 with 2X130GB and 2X2TB drives. I need to set them up in a RAID 1 array so that the 130GB Drives are mirrored and host the OS, while the 2TB drives are mirrored and are the content drives. So I go from 4 disks, down to two, one 130GB and one 2TB. I can do that in the BIOS RAID utility no problem.
