/dev/md0 is RAID 1
/dev/md1, /dev/md2, /dev/md3 and /dev/md4 are RAID 5.
I had some troubles with grub but I solved it partitioning the disk with
gdisk like this:
# Create the partition table with gpt
parted /dev/sdd mktable gpt
# Create BIOS Boot Partition 1Mb from the start of disk
parted /dev/sdd mkpart non-fs 1049KB 2048KB
# Activate the partition
parted /dev/sdd set 1 bios_grub on
# The following is the actual disk partition:
root@faraday:~# sgdisk -p /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 3907029168 sectors, 1.8 TiB
Logical sector size: 512 bytes
Disk identifier (GUID): 8DD74597-2C88-4408-AA9F-09774BB79BEA
Partition table holds up to 128 entries
First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 3907029134
Partitions will be aligned on 2048-sector boundaries
Total free space is 6253 sectors (3.1 MiB)
Number Start (sector) End (sector) Size Code Name
1 2048 6143 2.0 MiB EF02 BIOS boot partition
2 6144 780287 378.0 MiB 8300 Linux filesystem
5 2930466816 3907028991 465.7 GiB FD00 md4_a
6 1953904640 2930466815 465.7 GiB FD00 md2_a
7 977342464 1953902591 465.7 GiB FD00 md127_a
8 780288 977340415 465.7 GiB FD00 md0_a
After grub-install /dev/sda, I had to modify the following file
/etc/default/grub:
I changed the following line
GRUB CMDLINE LINUX DEFAULT="nomdmonddf nomdmonisw"
with this one:
GRUB CMDLINE LINUX DEFAULT=""
root@faraday:~# pvscan

Although some further adjustments will be needed to discard diskfilter option
in grub, the system is now running fine...
