Bug Description

Unfortunately, while I was able to configure a RAID-1 named

  /RAIDs/RAID-1/My awesome RAID-1 (fresh and shiny)

on the Ubuntu 18.04.1 live server installer UI (and my input was accepted), mdadm does not appear to appreciate this name and errors out (see attached screenshot).

As a result, the installation failed during the "Configuring raid: raid-0" step (while it was configuring RAID-1).

Thanks for the report. As you know I got a bit sidetracked by mdadm being odd. https://github.com/CanonicalLtd/subiquity/pull/398
