Ubuntu 13.04 unable to install in DL360e Gen8 Server with RAID

[Robertojjw]

How can I install Ubuntu 13.04 over a RAID 1 ?

I found this https://launchpad.net/~hp-iss-team/+archive/hp-storage

But I'm not sure how to use it...

Well the quick answer is that Ubuntu 13.04 hasn't been "certified" on this server:

http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201203-10849/

There's a release note that might apply to you:

"System is certified with Dynamic Smart Array disabled. To disable: *Press F9 to boot into RBSU *Navigate to System Options -> HP Dynamic Smart Array B320i and select disable *Go to System options -> SATA Controller options and select Legacy SATA or AHCI *Reboot the machine and now you will be able to install the OS."

Either way, I'd install 12.04 LTS instead of 13.04.
