thanks
I've fixed the segfault. Note however that you ask grub-setup to do a
pretty weird thing: install supposing that BIOS has support for mdraid
or the mdraid disk is used as VM disk. Since none of this is true you
probably want to install to member drives. To do it properly you need
mdraid partitions and not disks and leave 1MiB- few KiB at the start of
the disk before the first partition.
