I'm working to remove grub1 from the seeds, and I'm now wondering if this is still the case. I.e. if we can drop grub1, and only have grub2 for e.g. fakeraid installs et.al. Wouldn't this support be visible in like installer changes too?

Dell OptiPlex 960, 4Gb RAM, with Intel ICH10 fakeraid setup with Windows XP (RAID 1). 1) I resized NTFS partition to make 20Gb of room for Ubuntu. 2) Run Karmic installer, it sees fakeraid correctly, and I choose Manual partitioning, creating ext4 on new partition. 3) Installer goes thru entire installation, but fails on grub step with following error: "Grub package failed to install into /target. Without GRUB boot loader, the installed system will not boot." 4) I tried opening a terminal as su, and ran grub-install --root-directory=target /dev/mapper/isw_bfdafeice_ARRAY (which is the correct mapped disk, I believe) and it fails with "grub-probe: error: no mapping exists for isw_bfdafeice_ARRAY5". Auto detection of a filesystem module failed. 5) Then I tried grub-install --module=ext4 --root-directory=target /dev/mapper/isw_bfdafeice_ARRAY and it fails with, "You attempted a cross-disk install, but the filesystem containing target/boot/grub does not support UUIDs". So, left with a system that won't install GRUB so I can't boot. Happy to provide more detail.
