Public bug reported:
I have a raid 1 array (disk a) and another disk that doesn't have raid
enabled (disk b). I'm not that savvy in terms of understanding file
systems and the nomenclature.
Nonethless, i decided to wipe my hard drive and install 12.04 64bit.
After half way through the installation an error indicated that grub has
failed to install and that it was a fatal error.
I had 11.10 64bit installed on disk b and it wouldn't boot it couldn't
find the partition (i filed a previous question). So i've decided to
just wipe the disk and install 12.04 on disk b. I do have windows 7
installed on disk A.
I hypothesize that that maybe the issue; but i'm not sure how to fix the
problem.
