LL 2.0 install on AMD A6/A88 machine W/RAID 1 - LL Installer Crashes

[rentwist]

Began trying to install LL last night after enabling AMD RAID (1) in BIOS for 2) 2 TB disks.  Left to install and went to bed.  This morning when I went to check on the install, there was a window on top of another saying that the installer had crashed.  Both windows were unresponsive and I had to reset.  Nothing was installed on the disk(s).  Will be working on it again tonight but wondering if anyone has done RAID on AMD HW and gotten LL installed successfully (do not know if the problem with installer crash is related to my attempt to enable RAID or not (and RAID may not in fact be enabled, only see one disk when the install begins and the AMD RAID BIOS screen does not look right)).

On a related note, I thought I came across a tutorial on the forum regarding how to properly provide pertinent info in a posting to get help when reporting on a problem.  Can someone put me onto that (or am I remembering incorrectly?)  Like for instance how to get the command line stuff behind the GUI if I continue to experience installer crashes?

Thanks,

Robert
