That's why a grub-install --no-floppy /dev/sda and grub-install 
--no-floppy /dev/sdb should install grub on these MBRs and the rest 
should be handles by the mdraid1x grub module. If i use 0.90 metadata 
this works fine and grub installs without any errors on sda and sdb 
using the mdraid09 module.
