Comment 3 for bug 73141

Thanks, I guess some of my assumptions are wrong. I never understood the full usage of device.map, is it only used by grub when installing itself to a boot sector? I mean, when grub is booting, hd(0) is not the raid device but one of the disk. Or does the fakeraid BIOS correctly present the raid as hd(0)? What is hd(1) then? I supposed that the first cylinder on the first drive would equal the first sector on the raid device anyway, whether it is RAID-0 or RAID-1.

Anyway, IIRC from when I wrote the above, update-grub would just fail and not install grub to the raid, if just specifiying the raid device. Which again made grub-installer on the installer CDs fail. This is the real problem I wanted to treat here. I will check again with feisty when I have some time, maybe next week.
