Fine

Well:
grub install "(md0)' leads to the same error message

grub-install /dev/sda then grun-install /dev/sdb leads to other 
problems: the device naming is not consistant from one boot to another.
Sometimes I've md0 with /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1 and sometimes with sdb1 
and adc1 while they are the same phisycal disks.
So /boot/grub/device.map doesnt reflects always the real 
(logcal) configuration of the system.
This can produce erroror.
