I hope grub developers have fixed it in the last versions...

maybe you should consider also "rd" devices, so (cciss,ida,rd).

If I remember well I fixed a similar problem using simple post-install
script like the following:

-------------------
#!/bin/sh
cat /proc/mounts > /etc/mtab
grub-install --recheck /dev/<your_disk_device_here>
-------------------

errors, we should fix it! I think we should ping Sean about this... :-)
