Only thing that works is either: $ROOTCMD /usr/sbin/grub-install --no-floppy --modules="biosdisk part_msdos ext2 lvm raid" "(hd0)" $ROOTCMD update-grub or $ROOTCMD /usr/sbin/grub-install --no-floppy --modules="biosdisk part_msdos ext2 lvm raid" /dev/sda $ROOTCMD update-grub Anything speaks against "(hd0)"? This would work for most of the cases. For RAID1 users an example like this might be enough: $ROOTCMD /usr/sbin/grub-install --no-floppy --modules="biosdisk part_msdos ext2 lvm raid" "(hd0)" $ROOTCMD /usr/sbin/grub-install --no-floppy --modules="biosdisk part_msdos ext2 lvm raid" "(hd1)" $ROOTCMD update-grub > One possible issue remains: Which version of grub-pc are you using?
