Bug Description
Binary package hint: grub-pc
During installation of Natty I get the error below, this error did not occur in Maverick.
/dev/md0 is a raid0 device.
I have tried the filesystems ext2 and ext4 for /boot but both result in the same error.

This is not the same as bug 733116. Looking at debug output, grub-probe appears to think that the RAID0 device has zero sectors, which is distinct from the problem in bug 733116.
