As said, after installing, raid-1 is installed. For future kernels, the raid drive (/dev/md0 in my case) is the one to use. Then the "# kopt" is set according to that. A new kernel (equal to the installed official image) is installed - and de-installed. Then grub has changed the original settings for the first kernel installed. The one that should be used as rescue kernel. After the changes (the # kopt setting), nothing works. What I say is, grub should ONLY change what it installs and de-installs. > > If you 1) install the official way, 2) install raid (as this is not > > possible with my system because of other bugs) 3) compile a kernel the > > official way and de-install the new kernel, the system cannot boot. > > > > This must be a bug.
