Did you try GParted? It is a industrial partitioner and includes a lot of RAID drivers.
Ubuntu loads it during the instalation. And it recognized my array automatically.
If you still have problems try disabling APIC in the BIOS, this works almost always.
About the tweaking:
Using a script called AUTOMATIX you can get a full Linux system running in less than 2 hours with codecs, plugins, and a lot of stuff included.
(the same in Windows would take more than 12 hours
).
