Toshiba Satellite P200 - Ubuntu Installation


I have a new Toshiba Satellite P200-1C2 with this components:

Core 2 Duo T7100
Intel 965 Chipset
Ati Radeon HD X2600
2 GB RAM
240 GB HDD

The Installation of Windows XP sp2 required a cd with the drivers, because the sata controller is very new. i think the reason for my problem with ubuntu is the same.

i installed ubuntu 7.04 with wubi, but when i want to boot ubuntu there is this error: No Raid Disks found

How can i install Ubuntu? with google i found how to install debian on a P200 and ubuntu is based on debian, but it didnt help.

if it is a driver problem:
is it possible, to install the drivers for my chipset?
where can i find the drivers, on intels download page, i cant find anything

plz help me, i really need it to work.

ps: i also downloaded ubuntu 7.10 tribe5. i booted from the cd but it didnt work.

Can I buy it without this worry?
