I guess I will just explain what I am doing in detail. If anyone can please take some time and review my steps in accordance to what you know to be successful, please let me know. I am so badly trying to get this working on Arch.
1. Boot from the 2009.08 Netinst / Live CD
2. Login as root (no password) in the live environment
3. Add the required modules for RAID by running the following commands: - modprobe raid0 - modprobe raid1 - modprobe raid5
Everything you've written here looks correct -- except no need to load the raid0 and raid5 modules if you're not going to use them. I doubt they will be interfering, but you never know. You should be able to install GRUB either way, I don't think it will matter. Could you share your /boot/grub/menu.lst list file with us?
