Yes. My current desktop does this. It was very simple, just requiring that I
run grub-install on /dev/md0 and then adding insmod lvm and mdraid to
grub.cfg. You also must ensure that you have a partition that is flagged
bootable with some BIOSs.

Hi,
has anyone succeeded in having /boot on a lvm volume, or a mdadm raid
device,
which grub2 can directly boot from it?

If yes please give me some advice how to do it, i want to add full grub2
support to archboot setup and the docs are quite messy. I haven't found a
way
to do such a setup.

Many thanks for any input.
greetings
