That is just not true. The question of grub paths will _only_ be asked if you select "do not install in the MBR of the first disk". The only extra question that could be asked during grub installation is a grub password, and that is only asked at _low_ priority, i.e. two levels down from the default. Because of your problems with raid/lvm, it seems you have been backing up to the menu several times. > Perhaps there should be an option in the menu that you see after > backing out of something that toggles expert mode on/off? There is, it is called "Set debconf priority". You can use that to set the priority back to "high".
