Bug#475585: grub-probe: error: Unknown kind of RAID device `/dev/md/1'

[Hadmut Danisch]

Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.96+20080408-1
Severity: serious
Justification: serious

Hi, 

after upgrading to latest debian I can't install grub anymore:

My /boot directory is located on /dev/md/1 which consists of /dev/hda1 and /dev/sda1. 


# grub-install "(hd0)"
grub-probe: error: Unknown kind of RAID device `/dev/md/1'
Auto-detection of a filesystem module failed.
Please specify the module with the option `--modules' explicitly.



# grub-install --modules=raid "(hd0)"
grub-probe: error: Unknown kind of RAID device `/dev/md/1'
grub-setup: error: Unknown kind of RAID device `/dev/md/1'
andromeda# 


regards
Hadmut
