Bug#593648: grub-pc install fails on RAID1 (unknown filesystem)

Hi,

I've just investigated some more time. If I boot from a squeeze cd in rescue 
mode and let rescue mode put me in a shell on /dev/md0 I can run
  grub-install /dev/md0
and I'm able to boot from hard disk.

After booting from hard disk and again running
  grub-install /dev/md0
I'm again not able to boot from the hard disk with the message:
---8<-----------------------------
GRUB loading.
Welcome to GRUB!

error: no such disk.
Entering rescue mode...
grub rescue>
--->8-----------------------------

What is the different from the shell in rescue mode than the shell from the 
normally booted system? Why ist grub-install behaving different? I already 
tried to enter bash first in rescue mode before 
doing "grub-install /dev/md0". I also tried to "unset LANG" from the normally 
booted system before executing "grub-install /dev/md0". Nothing changes.
