The system boots into /dev/sdb.  The fstab I provided is from /dev/md0
which is on /dev/sda; I cannot get the system to boot into it as /dev/sda
does not have a valid bootloader....

I need to figure out how to install grub on /dev/sda, with instructions to
look at /dev/md?, while booted from /dev/sdb.

That's the crux.  I've tried chroot; installation fails because it can't
read /dev/md0.....

I can run

 qemu -curses -hda /dev/sda

and it appears to boot correctly but it won't boot into the new root....
