** Description changed:

  Installing to two new 3TB drives (/dev/sda and /dev/sdb). sda1 & sdb1
- are 1Mb and flagged as boot, sda2 and sdb2 are 2992GB, flagged as RAID
- and assembled as RAID-1 array MD0. sda3 and sdb3 are 8GB swap.
+ are 1Mb and flagged as bios_grub, sda2 and sdb2 are 2992GB, flagged as
+ RAID and assembled as RAID-1 array MD0. sda3 and sdb3 are 8GB swap.
  Installer works OK up to the point where it installs the GRUB boot
  loader to /dev/sda. Then it fails with the message "grub-install
  /dev/sda failed". Retry fails again. Continue without boot loader shows
  no more errors but system will not boot after installer has finished.
  Looks like grub is in /boot (when /dev/md0 is mounted as /). Not sure
  what to do to get GRUB installed at this point...
