I found now a method to write to a disk controlled by dmraid bootrecords,
but I doubt that this method works for all RAID configurations, in my case 
it was just a RAID0 with one disk :

    GNU GRUB  version 0.97  (640K lower / 3072K upper memory)

 [ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported.  For the first word, TAB
   lists possible command completions.  Anywhere else TAB lists the possible
   completions of a device/filename. ]

grub> device (hd1,4) /dev/sdb5

grub> device (hd1) /dev/sdb

grub> root (hd1,4)
 Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83

grub> setup (hd1,4)
 Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes
 Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes
 Checking if "/boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5" exists... yes
 Running "embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd1,4)"... failed (this is not fatal)
 Running "embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd1,4)"... failed (this is not fatal)
 Running "install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd1,4) /boot/grub/stage2 p /boot/grub/menu
lst "... succeeded
Done.

I think the correct method under grub should be

device (hd1,4) /dev/mapper/pdc_bjfeeibeeb_part5
device (hd1) /dev/mapper/pdc_bjfeeibeeb
root (hd1,4)
setup (hd1,4)
but this fails with Error 22: No such partition
