Could you try booting from external media and see how much sectors of
hd0 does the GRUB see? BIOS may not present the entire disk to the
bootloader. If it's so and the disk is ATA you can workaround it with:
grub-install --disk-module=ata /dev/sda

I looked but I couldn't find a way for GRUB to say how many sectors it sees.  
What is the command?

I tried --disk-module=ata and now I get "error: device not connected." and then the menu appears. My LVM partitions are recognized and I'm able to boot Linux.

So it looks like this workaround solves the problem.  I think you can close 
this bug.

Thanks for your patience and your help!
