grub-install also still (as reported about 2 years ago) tries to use

However, I did now manage to boot after fixing that.
So there is a chance I can make a patch to fix grub-install soon so it
actually works on IBM power systems. Given I have a production machine
and a new machine around for a few days I can experiment until it
is right.
Is this supposed to work:
address@hidden:~# /usr/sbin/grub-probe --device /dev/md0 --target=abstraction
diskfilter mdraid1x
address@hidden:~# /usr/sbin/grub-probe --device /dev/md1 --target=abstraction
/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: Couldn't find PV (null). Check your device.map.
md0 is raid1, md1 is raid5, but with a missing device at the moment.
Does grub-probe not work if the raid5 isn't fully healthy?
