Any of those should work. You can individually install each disk independently with: # grub-install /dev/sda # grub-install /dev/sdb Or, more conveniently, you can install to the md device, and let the new code in grub-install sort it out (recommended): # grub-install /dev/md0 > Also, does it matter if we've previously tried to patch the 'initramfs' > script as previously suggested?

And yes, it would probably not be a good idea to apply these to a system that was manually patched. That would invalidate the testing that I'm looking for...applying these updates to a stock, up-to-date Hardy test system.
