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?
