Both Colin Watson and I tried to reproduce it or similar problems but
couldn't other than on heavily desynced and corrupted disk. If you can
supply the test images (just GRUB+kernel) using latest bzr upstream I'd
happily fix it, otherwise I don't see what I can do.
I need to understand better what you need.
Do you need the dd images of all the disks?
This is a summary of the first disk:
-----
root@devilserver:~# fdisk -u -l /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 2000.4 GB, 2000398934016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 243201 cylinders, total 3907029168 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x0007982f
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 2048 1953791 975872 82 Linux swap / Solaris
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/sda2 1953792 99610623 48828416 fd Linux raid
autodetect
/dev/sda3 99610624 3907028991 1903709184 fd Linux raid

Supplying the entire image, even omitting the 3rd partition (/home) is not
feasible, both for size (40+GiB) and for security reasons.
What I can do for sure is blank out one of the 5 disks, and do whatever you
tell me to do on it.
Or supply a dd image of the first 2048 sectors of the disk.
Or the first sectors of the / partition.
Or the files in my /boot directory.
I want to remember you this:
-When the system works, the "Welcome to GRUB" appears for some milliseconds,
then I see the GRUB menu.
-When the system does not work (original installation HDDs missing),
"Welcome to GRUB" appears for some time, then the system reboots.
This is way before loading the kernel.
