I almost always have to use the "boot installed system" option in the installer and manually edit /etc/grub.conf, /boot/grub/oevice.map, and /boot/grub/menu/lst, and then run grub --batch </etc/grub.conf
Indeed, my problem was solved by doing the "install grub to MBR on both disks" routine. grub> find /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0,0) (hd1,0) grub> device (hd0) /dev/sda root (hd0,0) setup (hd0) device (hd0) /dev/sdb root (hd0,0) setup (hd0) And reboot works fine. For some unfathomable reason, once in a great while the installer does
actually manage to create a working /boot on it's own. The config files look different than above but it boots. I haven't yet figured out how to get it to work all on it's own reliably. I gave up trying and just set up the above configuration manually every time.
