Bug#548156: grub-installer: No grub2 when using gpt partition schema



Package: grub-installer
Severity: important

I use 2 disks with GPT partition schemes
On those I create 2 RAID-1 partitions
RAID #1 ( mirror ) contains /boot
RAID #2 ( mirror ) contains LVM with other partitions

Using these settings no longer gives me the option of selecting GRUB2 <- this is the real bug
And GRUB Legacy fails as it cannot handle /boot on mdadm with gpt partition schemes.

I thing this is an important bug as we soon have 2 gibibyte disks and the default msdos partition scheme cannot address those!

With kind regrads,
  Marcel
