raid needs Id of fd rather than 83 to auto detect??

Ok, I see that it's hardware 512b blocks, so you're not running into
issues with 4k hardware blocks. I trust you installed grub on /dev/md0,
which I assume is /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1?

> From the wiki instructions, there is no re-installation of GRUB, only
a couple of changes in /boot/grub/grub.conf file installed by the
regular installation on /dev/sda.   During the RAID1 creation process
the  grub from /dev/sda would mirrored into the RAID1 device and
appear on the MBR of both the disks.

As I said in the OP, I do see the grub menu with either of the disks
"unplugged"  i.e. missing.   The kernel does boot and the white
progress bar goes upto about 50% when the kernel panic occurs.  I will
turn off the splash and see what comes up on the console.   Gut
feeling --  I suspect the problem is with the initrd image created
with the "dracut"
