That's better, grub-install now does

   grub-mkimage --output=/tmp/boot/grub/core.img --prefix=/tmp/boot/grub ext2 
lvm biosdisk _chain

I haven't tested yet, but this won't work, gpt (or pc?) is also needed, right?

I remember having seen

   grub rescue> ls
   (hd0) (hd1)

ie: no partitions when I tried without gpt/pc.  I do not know how to
recover from that from withing grub (cannot mount anything to insmod
gpt/pc from).

Here's how grub-probe is called

    grub-probe --target=partmap --device-map=/boot/grub/device.map /boot/grub
    grub-probe: error: Cannot detect partition map for lvmraid-lvm1

Greetings,
Jan.
