Here are the instructions on what to do to replace kernel on kimsufi server using mdraid:
1. Install stock kernel using:
apt-get install linux-image-server # no change here

2. You will notice some error messages similar to:
Generating grub.cfg ...
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-39-generic
Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-39-generic
/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: no such disk.
/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: no such disk.
No volume groups found
done

This is important - because OVH kernel does not use modules grub is unable figure out what grub needs to load

3. To go around the problem 2 add the following to your /boot/grub/grub.cfg. In my case I added it just below function load_video section (not within the section! below)
insmod raid
insmod mdraid09
insmod part_msdos
insmod part_msdos
insmod ext2

You should ensure that all this modules actually exist in /boot/grub/${modulename}.mod

4. Once saved reboot the server

5. When the server comes back run command to regenerate grub config, this time with all required modules added automatically:

update-grub

That is it, everything should be working fine from now.

First off, thanks for the guide. I have a kimsufi server running ubuntu 10.04. I followed your steps exactly, but unfortunately my server did not reboot. I have three partitions: a raid 1 mounted at /, a raid 0 mounted at /home, and a swap partition. This is my first experience with linux, and I am wondering if my problem may be coming form the partitions I have created.

I am going to keep working on it for now. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.

-Mike

Thanks!
