Problems installing grub/lilo with RAID1 on /
hello,
I am trying to install squeeze (from live DVD[1]) with a RAID1 root
filesystem (/dev/md0).
[1] http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/release/current-live/i386/iso-hybrid/debian-live-6.0.1-i386-gnome-desktop.iso
There is an error when running grub-install:
---------------------

---------------------
I tried to run it manually:
---------------------
chroot /target grub-install --no-floppy --force /dev/sda
/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: no such disk.
Auto-detection of a filesystem of /dev/md0 failed.
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@gnu.org>
---------------------
Should I report this as d-i bug?
The output of grub-probe is as follows:
---------------------

---------------------
Should I report this to grub-bug?
Is there a way to tell grub-install that this is a ext3 filesystem?
Here is /target/fstab:
---------------------
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
# / was on /dev/md0 during installation
UUID=602edfeb-17c2-4904-a972-ffaa89496418 / ext3 errors=remount-ro 0 1
# swap was on /dev/sdb1 during installation
UUID=5c3c731c-0183-4131-ac01-ffab7b5600d9 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/scd1 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom1 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0
---------------------
"chroot /target mount" produces:
---------------------
rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)
none on /proc type proc (rw,relatime)
none on /sys type sysfs (rw,relatime)
tmpfs on /dev type tmpfs (rw,relatime,mode=755)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,relatime,gid=5,mode=620,ptmxmode=000)
/dev/md0 on /target type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered)
tmpfs on /target/dev type tmpfs (rw,relatime,mode=755)
none on /target/proc type proc (rw,relatime)
/dev/sr1 on /cdrom type iso9660 (ro,relatime)
/dev/sdg1 on /media type vfat (rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=cp437,iocharset=utf8,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro)

When trying to install lilo (with the debian-installler), I get
"inconsistent raid information" (but the RAID1 (2x 208G) was created
with debian-installer):

Please tell me if you need additional information.
