Bug#563822:

[David Steiner]

Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.98~20100101-1
Severity: normal

The system boots again. I ran "grub-install --recheck /dev/md0" from a livecd in chroot.

$ echo GET grub-pc/install_devices | sudo debconf-communicate
0 (hd0)

The current debconf info changed, because i ran dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc. after booting the above is what was reported. 

The bios is set to boot from /dev/hdb (hd0). Currently it works to boot from the other drives aswell.
