further information:

so SWAP is not in RAID now.
i have read somewhere else, that if swap is in RAID 1 and one of the two harddisks (both with swap) will fail,
the system will go down... even with RAID 1. (normally one would thinks the system will keep running because of RAID 1!
i can not confirm this, i have just read about it.
But if thats true, there is no reason why to put swap in RAID 1.

So until there is no possibilty to run swap in RAID 1,
ubuntu installer should inform that putting swap into RAID is a bad idea!
