Hey guys

Im really after a how to or step by step guide to get it working.

I have two raptor x 150gb drives in Raid0 (one of those "fake" ones which is setup using bios and onboard raid controller).

I also have 2 other drives which, as a last resort could be used to install ubuntu onto (if its easier) as these are two single disks (not raided)..yet i would still need to dual boot into my vista install (which is on the Raid0 setup)

I'm still a newbie at ubuntu and really want to get it back up and running so I can get a bit better.

Thanks

Is there a way to install ubuntu on one of the single disks then somehow get GRUB to "see" my raid0 partition with vista on it and be able to boot to that?

Or perhaps make it so if i dont select anything in Grub it bypasses grub and goes onto the normal windows boot sector?
