Can't help you with the GRUB issue as I use LILO, however... Something
that someone on this list suggested to me many year back has stuck with me
and proven to be useful and that's to try to number the md devices the
same as the sd (or hd in those days!) devices, so:
md1 : active raid1 sdb1[1] sda1[0]
md2 : active raid10 sdb2[1] sda2[0]
md3 : active raid10 sdb3[1] sda3[0]
md5 : active raid10 sdb5[1] sda5[0]
etc.
Is it still a good idea? I think so - anything that helps to reduce the
possibility of mistakes is good in my books...
