[Bug 1065987] Re: error: embedding is not possible, but this is required for RAID and LVM install.

[martin suc]

My revodrive has grub installed properly.  What do you mean via
/dev/md127 ? I do not need to correct it - it is working as I need.

Just to be clear. When grub installation process start - it is going to destroy what has been already properly installed. It is always went into grub rescue shell and I have to switch to another os instance and install grub again to make grub working properly. 
So, something is wrong within grub installation process.
I do not have/had any problem with grub until I allow to install grub 2 - this was/is happening from the moment when beta version quantal has been released until now and still continue.  
Every time when grub is going to be installed those error messages always appeared within installation process. and it went to grub rescue shell.
I do not need bios_grub for this particular os instance - It works fine as it is.

If you want me to test something , let me know - I can arrange it on
/dev/md121 partition or some other raid0 - even on /dev/md127 which is
xfs filesystem but it is not bootable intentionally - I have it for
testing purpose and some other stuff - so I am not running on that
instance.
