2012-05-16 18:57:32 Phillip Susi description I tried to upgrade a server, and i was left with a broken grub2. I think it has to do something with LVM/RAID. My setup: /root lies on LVM which is on a Raid5. There's not separate boot partition. When i reinstall grub2 from the command-line i get the following errors: ... Setting up grub-pc (1.99-21ubuntu3) ... Creating config file /etc/default/grub with new version error: found two disks with the index 0 for RAID md0. error: found two disks with the index 3 for RAID md0. error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). error: found two disks with the index 0 for RAID md0. error: found two disks with the index 3 for RAID md0. error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). error: found two disks with the index 0 for RAID md0. error: found two disks with the index 3 for RAID md0. error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). error: found two disks with the index 0 for RAID md0. error: found two disks with the index 3 for RAID md0. error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). error: found two disks with the index 0 for RAID md0. error: found two disks with the index 3 for RAID md0. error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). error: superfluous RAID member (4 found). /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: unknown filesystem.

This can cause unexpected failure after upgrading from 10.04.
