Failing Drive With /boot in Ubuntu

Asked by crisco96 in Ubuntu, Linux, Linux Setup

Here's my setup:
3 hard drives with 2 partitions each
  380gb of each drive is used in a raid 5 array
  2gb for /boot (and 2 backups of /boot on the other two drives)

If I disconnect the drive with /boot it seems to try to load the boot backup from the other drives but grub gives an error and goes into grub rescue.

How can I make it so I can boot from any of the 3 drives (in case one of them fails)?
