How did you install grub on /dev/sdb ?

Thanks to all your help, the problem is solved.
Did the following change to the /boot/grub/grub.conf and /etc/fstab.
For grub.conf, I changed root=/dev/md1 to root=UUID=f91a794d-2bfd-44c5-abf1-c4ad8c4139bd
and added rd_MD_UUID=dce65261:eb5eb12a:9cf04c7a:ecbfd465
For /etc/fstab, changed to UUID.
Now the server can boot with just /dev/sda. Replaced /dev/sdb with a new drive and the Raid1 has synced up. All good.
Once again thank you to all who have replied and helped. I really do appreciated it.
