> the initrd needs to be fixed to include dmraid

With the dmraid package installed, the initrd will include dmraid as well. To include any special modules like dmraid4-5.ko, edit /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/dmraid and run "sudo update-initramfs -u" afterwards.

To find out if grub needs patching, boot grub (e.g. from a floppy or grub cd) and see if you can find the boot partition using the grub commands "find" or "root".
