Okay, so you're saying that it's okay to set up the partitions
manually and don't worry about the moving /boot, right?

Is there any support for installing grub on a RAIDed /boot?

I think I'm confused, but what I'm trying to do is recover from a
failed /dev/sda that contains the only /boot partition.

I never use LVM because most of my systems are basic Xeon 1U boxes
with no additional HDD capacity anyway...

Thanks Alan,
