To setup RAID or LVM during the install, you have to use the alternate
install CD. To download it instead of the Desktop CD, click the box
labeled "Check here if you need the alternate desktop CD. This CD does
not include the Live CD, instead it uses a text-based installer." on
Ubuntu's download page.
