I can't think of a way that would work if the disks were in fact using
different setups, which they could be.

OK, fair enough if the below worked then.

root@rceng03new:~# grub-probe -t partmap -d /dev/md0

So that would be a problem of course.

root@rceng03new:~# cat /proc/mdstat 
Personalities : [raid1] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] 
md1 : active raid5 sda3[0] sdb3[1]
      284773376 blocks super 1.2 level 5, 512k chunk, algorithm 2 [3/2] [UU_]
      
md0 : active raid1 sda2[0] sdb2[1]
      976884 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU]
      
unused devices: <none>

md0 is /boot
md1 is /

When I do the final install I will probably but lvm on md1 and put /
and swap and other things on that.
