failed installation w/ dual 250GB drives (part 0)

[Jeffrey Engel]

I booted the 'Live' version and tried to install on my system (Dell T5400 w/16GB or ram and 8 cores). Ubuntu seems to be unable to see the drives completely.

I'll make a couple more attempts, so there may be more bug reports associated with this install.
