I get the same errors. I try to install grub in a chroot environment (dev,sys and proc is correctly mounted with rebind):

Please report this together with the output of "/usr/sbin/grub-probe --device-map="/boot/grub/device.map" --target=fs -v /boot/grub" to <email address hidden>

The boot partition is /dev/md1 (ext3).

I am using Ubuntu 11.04 (with all current updates installed) and I am using GPT on the hard disks (same partitioning scheme on sda and sdb):
