Well, I'm glad that you tried the proper procedure... but unfortunately
due to the amount of problems and the huge hassle in future upgrades, I
would not recommend using ataraid.
Back when I used it about 2 years ago, I couldn't get GRUB to load my
custom ataraid kernel. The only way I managed to make it work was with
a patched lilo. No idea where that patch is today.
