I tried installing onto a nested fakedraid and since 9.10, have never gotten it to install. This bug seems to be the problem, and removing the patch as described here got me close to complete. The Grub2 didn't seem to like the nested fakeraid, at that point. Anyway trying just now with 11.04, dmraid doesn't seem active when the installer is run straight from boot. When you have the option to try or install, click "try" to start the livecd, and use a terminal to execute "sudo dmraid -ay", which will start the device mapper. Then you can click the shortcut on the desktop folder to install, and the RAID partitions will be there. Whether or not this bug bites you then, is another question.
