Michael, thank you for your reply, I am confident to assume that the Kernel is not broken (brand-new installation of Ubuntu 9.10). Well, I guess so. What do you mean with "the wrong system type". AFAIK I have not specified any target system up to now, just (in the language of GRUB2) "root" and "kernel" ...? One issue could be that if I boot via SystemRescueDisk and look into /boot/grub of the /dev/md0 (software RAID1 device), I cannot find a file stage1 - which BTW is what the SuperGrubDisk complains about if I choose to repair automatically. Is this file /boot/grub/stage1 necessary? My assumption is that: if the stage1 file would be there, the next step would be: load the kernel. Am I right?
