I've never done a raid install but I found this on grub bug report
Package: grub
Version: 0.97-23
Severity: important
Tags: patch
in grub-install there is a regular expression that strips the partition
from the dev supplied
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 = 1
if you supply /dev/cciss/c0d0 howover it supplies the whole device, when
the code expects an empty string.
replace
-e 's%.*c[0-7]d[0-9]*p%%' \
with
-e 's%.*c[0-7]d[0-9]*p*%%' \

The paartition (hd0,0) is ext3
This is in the chroot environment and /dev is mounted
There are no /dev/?da* devices this system uses /dev/cciss/c0d0.
New information... If I run the command "device (hd0) /dev/cciss/c0d0" then
"root (hd0,0)" works. Now "setup (hd0)" produces this error...
grub> setup (hd0)
Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes
Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes
Checking if "/boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5" exists... yes
Running "embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd0)"... 15 sectors are embedded.
succeeded
Running "install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0) (hd0)1+15 p (hd0,0)/boot/grub/stage2
/boot/grub/menu.lst"... failed
Error 22: No such partition
