AFAIK initrd involves installing to a volume, not running from a Live CD.
Right now if I just boot with the Tribe5 Live CD and install dmraid
through synaptic, it will find the metadata no problem but won't mount
the partitions to /dev/mapper.
If I boot with the Feisty Live DVD, and install dmraid, it will find
both the metadata and create the volumes in /dev/mapper.
Thanks for your help!

Not familiar with Ubuntu.
Looks like an initrd flaw not activating the volumes...
Any Ubuntu wizards ?
