Bug#373145: More info

[Graham <graham.knap@gmail.com>]

I'm playing with a similar installation tonight, so I thought it would
make sense to simply append to this report.

I've read that grub supports booting from RAID 1, so I'm trying that.
Otherwise, everything is the same as last night.

I should have mentioned that I chose to install grub in /dev/hda2,
instead of the MBR... and also that I selected the ext3 filesystem.

I ran into the same problem as yesterday, and now I see what it is:

md: bind<hdb>
md: bind<hda>

Hmm, that's not what I wanted. It should have picked hda5+hdb5, and
today, also hda2+hdb2. Is this configured somewhere, or does the md
code auto-detect RAID volumes somehow?

There is an additional glitch today, in the grub configuration:

root (hd0,0)

This is wrong; (hd0,0) is a swap partition. If I understand correctly,
this should actually point at the "/boot" partition, which is (hd0,1)
... correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm out of time for today, but will return tomorrow.
