Hi Robert,

Marco already said on IRC before I even send the mail that the error
shouldn't be displayed if a dmraid is detected on it.
Maybe too complicated and the error shouldn't be shown at all.
The error won't be shown on real GRUB anyway.

Please don't get me wrong, I don't want to complain about the already
commited code.

Now with Bean's lastest patch with even RAID 10 support there is never
for mdraid's now shown "unknown RAID level".
And my original intention was, to have it only shown once per array
instead of once per disk on array.

But I don't know what error messages can currently appear or will in the
future.
I only want a good solution for the long term :)

Maybe just grub-install and update-grub should be a little changed to
supress repeating the errors that much, i.e. not on every grub-probe
run?
