No error. At some point, you find that you have to run the following command to "check" what's grub-probe idea about your hardisks: /usr/sbin/grub-probe --device-map=/boot/grub/device.map --target=fs -v /boot/grub However, it is reporting at the end: /usr/sbin/grub-probe: info: opening md0. /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: no such disk.

Also affects distribution/package Nominate for series Bug Description I've got two 2TB drives set up with identical partitions, which are combined into RAID1 arrays (five mirrors across the two disks). On a free RAID1 I've installed Trusty 64bit from the Desktop installer ("try Ubuntu" first, install mdadm, run mdadm --assemble --scan, then start installer). I then wanted grub to be installed onto /dev/sda and /dev/sdb, but both fail.
