Public bug reported:
1. boot to livecd (desktop)
2. a) $ sudo apt-get install mdadm # not certain whether this part was needed
2. b) $ sudo mdadm -C /dev/md_d2 -l 1 -n 1 -f -x 2 /dev/vd[abc]
3. run installer, tell it to use entire md_d2 disk for lvm
Results in:
Executing 'grub-install /dev/vda' failed.
This is a fatal error.
Somewhat related to bug #1058129 and bug #1068137.
After looking around a bit and possibly mounting things that were not mounted:
$ sudo grub-install --root-directory=/target /dev/md_d2
Installation finished. No error reported.
