annoying bug... much appreciated!

[Bug 680751] Re: unity grub-install on raid incorrectly handles 'writemostly' flag

[Andrew Fernandes]

I should add that booting also fails since the grub configuration now
has a syntax error in it; thus this configuration leads to an unbootable
install.

[Bug 680751] [NEW] unity grub-install on raid incorrectly handles 'writemostly' flag

[Andrew Fernandes]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubiquity

I have three disks for software raid that I have set up as
/dev/sd[abc]1. The third disk is slower than the first two, so I have it
marked as writemostly through mdadm. They are assembled onto raid
array /dev/md0.

However, ubiquity tries to guess that the bootloader should be installed
on all /dev/sd[abc]. That is fantastically-smart behaviour.

However, when probing the array properties, it gets confused. Output of
/var/log/messages is:

Nov 24 02:52:38 ubuntu grub-installer: info: Installing grub on '/dev/sda 
/dev/sdb writemostly /dev/sdc'
Nov 24 02:52:38 ubuntu grub-installer: info: grub-install supports --no-floppy

Nov 24 02:52:42 ubuntu grub-installer: Installation finished. No error reported.
Nov 24 02:52:42 ubuntu grub-installer: info: grub-install ran successfully

Nov 24 02:52:44 ubuntu grub-installer: Invalid device `writemostly'.
Nov 24 02:52:44 ubuntu grub-installer: Try `/usr/sbin/grub-setup --help' for 
more information.
Nov 24 02:52:44 ubuntu grub-installer: error: Running 'grub-install  
--no-floppy --force writemostly' failed.

At this point, I get the graphical Bootloader install failed dialog,
with How would you like to proceed?

The problem is that the okay button is always greyed out, and thus the
installation hangs/fails.
