Before moving on from the "ls" step, the OP needs to see some
output that ends in /grub, at least resembling:

  Grub> ls (hdX,msdosY)/boot/
  … … … … … … grub/ … … … … …
  Grub> ls (hdX,msdosY)/boot/grub/
  … a list of Grub directories Grub> … … grub.cfg … …

at which point, these commands should work:

  Grub> set prefix=(hdX,msdosY)/boot/grub
  Grub> set root=hdX,msdosY
  Grub> insmod normal
  Grub> normal

giving access to all of Grub's commands.
His prefix "/boot/grub" and "/" is inside md array, so <TAB>-asking existing device (hdX,msdosY) will return nothing.
Instead, (md/0) <TAB> should show "/boot"
I'm confident those commands (some of them are redundant) I typed will boot OS with his storage configuration from a grub command line.
There is even no apparent reason for boot process to go through grub rescue in a first place.
