(NB: please Cc: me on replies as I'm not subscribed here) This mail is to determine where to file a bug report. I'm not clear if it is an mdadm, mbr, grub, lilo or d-i issue or the interaction of those within d-i context.
I attempted to use the squeeze d-i to install a system on a raid1 pair. The installation went fine up to the point of attempting to install a bootloader to the mbr(s). Grub failed, both grub2 and legacy. lilo also would not install. I was installing via netboot and had this failure with both the 2010-02-11 netboot.tar.gz release for amd64 as well as the 2010-03-30 amd64 snapshot. I finally got a running squeeze on raid1 by using lenny's d-i to install lenny, then upgrading (following '/msg dpkg lenny->squeeze' instructions from #debian). This now works fully upgraded to grub2 and squeeze. I need to proceed with using that system right now so can't really spend time re-trying various installers on it. However, I will be building another very similar system in a week or 2 (pending a PSU RMA). At that time, I would like to know who to talk to in order to help with sorting out the issues if they are still present.
