Recently I was trying to install the incredible XBMC on a new Ubuntu Natty 11.04 installation, but found some problems after following the instructions on the XBMC Wiki. This is the extra step I had to follow to get everything working the way I would have expected. 
While trying to install Ubuntu on an old hard drive I started encountering problems using the Ubiquity installer. I was able to complete the installation using the alternative CD with dmraid (SATA or Fake RAID) disabled. After tracing the problem to the old drive having once been used in a BIOS RAID Array I next had to search for a means to removing the RAID information from the drive meta-data with out losing or destroying any data.
