I see the same bug on lucid 10.04.3 LTS Because I install system using FAI system , I just changed the default settings in /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf , so mdadm uses metadata version 1.0 after that grub installs correctly and I can boot from the raid1 device
metadata 0.9 also works . but with metadata 1.1 and 1.2 grub legacy fails .... Didn't check grub2 cat /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf # auto-create devices with Debian standard permissions CREATE owner=root group=disk mode=0660 auto=yes metadata=1.0 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527401 Title: grub-installer fails to install on a raid1 array To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/527401/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
