Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I tried to install wheezy on a Sony Vaio Z2 which has a raid0 disk
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Tried to install grub
* What was the outcome of this action?
grub-install on /dev/md126 (the raid0) fails:
/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: no such disk /dev/md126p5
* What outcome did you expect instead
Since /dev/md126p5 is /boot I expected grub to install
grub-install suggests the output of grub-probe -v might be interesting. Here it is:
# /usr/sbin/grub-install /dev/md126
/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: no such disk.
Auto-detection of a filesystem of /dev/md126p5 failed.
Try with --recheck.
If the problem persists please report this together with the output of "/usr/sbin/grub-probe --device-map="/boot/grub/device.map" --target=fs -v /boot/grub" to <bug-grub at gnu.org>
# /usr/sbin/grub-probe --device-map=/boot/grub/device.map --target=fs -v /boot/grub
