I don't believe you can boot from a striped volume (raid5 being a
stripe + parity). I found some instructions that may allow this to
work but requires packing a non-standard initrd:

grub2 can handle "/boot" on mdraid raid5 (and possibly dmraid raid5 too).
That's ok, my boot partition is /dev/sda1 (500MB) - dedicated to being
/boot and nothing else, and all my RAID partitions are /dev/sd*2.
I didn't realise grub2 could handle that, though. Thanks.
