[Bug 2024600] [NEW] Why is it impossible to install the Grub start program in the BIOS_Grub partition on a fake-RAID1 ?

[Guillaume Tetart]

Public bug reported:

Always the same problem,
during the installation of Ubuntu 22.04 on a fake-Raid-1 array, the installation of Grub always fails on the dedicated partition.
My computer is a HP-xw44000, without any UEFI technology. Raid-1 array configured in the Raid bios (ctrl-i).
Could you please explain and show me clearly the solution, if there is one ; I didn't find any suitable response on the the different forum's ...
Regards,
