Because the GRUB device is still called md0. The actual /dev/ filename doestn't matter. That doestn't look right to install to /dev/md_d0 You should either use grub-install '(md0)' which installs it automatically on all disks which are part of it or the old way with grub-install /dev/sda etc. But for RAID you need space for embeding which you maybe not have if you want to setup it to md_d0. That means you have to create a partition on all your RAID disks and then setup the RAID over it, though you can still use a partionable RAID array on it. But there must be space between MBR and the first partition which is always ~32 KiB with plain old msdos partition table. Are you using maybe super block 1.x format instead of default 0.90? grub2 doestn't support this. And check that device.map contains all the disks your RAID is using. -- Felix Zielcke -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
