The changes you needed to make are most likely because you're using x64, which I'm not touching at the moment on desktop machines (makes flash and java etc a lot easier!). Its probably too late for you now, but if you're not using Windows you're probably better off using Linux's software raid rather than fakeraid - the performance is about the same, and it is a hell of a lot easier to set up! Fakeraid is only really useful if you dualboot to Windows and you want them to share data on a raid setup.

This works and it works really well. I adapted this to Ubuntu Desktop 8.10 amd-64, using an Nvida nForce4 integrated chipset, and have installed the system onto a 2TB RAID 0 across 4 500GB disks. (For more details google: HP ProLiant ML115) I only had to make a few changes. Primarily, I had to use GParted to setup the partitions. Both fdisk and parted failed to properly read/write the MBR. As a bonus however, no reboot is required after partitioning with GParted. The size of my disk may have been the problem. Other changes were small, like my grub directory (/usr/lib/grub/x86_64-pc) and making a directory in /boot (below). Also, i skipped all the windows stuff. I switched to Ubuntu because it became impossible to run windows on my machine (too many hardware incompatibilities). Also, you may need to append this to your guide, after apt-get update and install dmraid on /target. I don't know if this exists after installation fails in kubuntu, but it doesn't in ubuntu. "mkdir /boot/grub" Thu, 20 Nov 2008 05:12:15 +1300 quequotation http://hol.net.nz/blog/kubuntu-with-fakeraid/#PageComment_12
