[Bug 803658] [NEW] grub-install /dev/mapper/isw_$UUID_$NAME0 failing with ICH10R raid 1+0

[Robert Collins]

Public bug reported:

/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for
/dev/mapper/isw_bichcdfhcg_ARRAY0.  Check your device.map.

is the error.

the array has four drives in it:
/dev/sda	1000204886016	ATA ST31000528AS
/dev/sdb	1000204886016	ATA ST31000528AS
/dev/sdc	1000203804160	ATA SAMSUNG HD103UJ
/dev/sdd	1000203804160	ATA SAMSUNG HD103UJ
/dev/mapper/isw_bichcdfhcg_ARRAY0	2000402251776	Linux device-mapper (striped)
/dev/mapper/isw_bichcdfhcg_ARRAY0-1	1000201129984	Linux device-mapper (mirror)
/dev/mapper/isw_bichcdfhcg_ARRAY0-0	1000201129984	Linux device-mapper (mirror)
/dev/mapper/isw_bichcdfhcg_ARRAY0p1	41094144	Linux device-mapper (linear)
/dev/mapper/isw_bichcdfhcg_ARRAY0p2	9141485568	Linux device-mapper (linear)
/dev/mapper/isw_bichcdfhcg_ARRAY0p3	104857600000	Linux device-mapper (linear)
/dev/mapper/isw_bichcdfhcg_ARRAY0p5	4194304000	Linux device-mapper (linear)
/dev/mapper/isw_bichcdfhcg_ARRAY0p6	1882164559872	Linux device-mapper (linear)

the root device is striped on two mirror devices : so the right drive to
use is a stripe set (with in this case 64k stripes) - but the bios will
bring it up... I'm not sure (yet) why grub-probe needs to care.
