I selected the "md0" partition (the root partition created before) and choose "Add GPT Partition", and than I selected format as "Ext4" and mount on "/" I created another "RAID md" volume, but this time with "/home" partition (always active), selecting both "/home" partitions to create a new "md1" partition

Using the "Create software RAID (md)" option, I selected the "/" - root - disk one partition, and the "/" partition of disk two, to create a new "md0" volume (always active) I checked both disks to be "added as a boot disk" Then, using the "Custom storage layout" during the Ubuntu Server 20.04 installation: I decided to omit a "/swap" partition because I have 16 GB of RAM installed, and I use SSD drives, and this server will be just a little home NAS, so I don't need high performance. (Entire remaining space) /home partition, named "/home", ext4, flagged as "raid".10 GB partition, named "/", ext4, flagged as "raid".512 MB partition, named "/bios/efi", fat32, flagged as "boot, esp".

Now select the 1st disk to add as "boot" disk (same menu that had REFORMAT in).This will (temporarily) wipe out the partitions. If the disks have existing partitions, click on each disk under AVAILABLE DEVICES and then select REFORMAT.

Select "Custom storage layout" when you reach the storage configuration step of the installer.As I stumbled on the same issue and found out that the actual docs haven't yet been updated for the new storage configurator (still true as of March 2021 and now possibly with a bug on the bios_grub configurator of the installer), here's what I did to get a working softRAID 1 setup with 2 disks on the Ubuntu Server edition (for version 20.04 or newer):
