Bowie, in terms of RAID 10, each drive technically cant be standalone right? The drives are striped and mirrored.
10 (one-zero) == a mirror of two stripped arrays. You can lose up to two drives, so long as they are both from the same strip set.
10 is a stripe of two mirrors, but anyway, there is more to it because mdraid 10 is another beast. Unfortunate naming!

So one has to ask everytime what is meant, a standard layered raid 10 or a mdraid 10.
As I understand it though, I thought that /boot could only exist on RAID 1 vanilla.
I think this is correct. Because of this I also think that the OP has bigger problems than the just the MBR. Where is his /boot gone?
