I struck the same problem with the 19 October daily build of karmic-
alternate-amd64.iso (I didn't try the livecd.)

During the installation, grub2 (grub-pc) was installed - not grub - and
failed to detect the dmraid devices as above.

Booting into rescue mode.  Was asked if I wanted to initialise the SATA
raid devices (yes), but received the error "The installer could not find
any partitions"; it found the existing partitions during the
installation process.  Opened a shell; dmraid and /dev/mapper were
configured correctly.  Set up the chroot environment, removed grub-pc
and installed grub.

I eventually got grub to install correctly, but running update-grub
created the menu.lst file with an extra comma on each of the root device
definitions e.g. "(hd0,2,)".  Script bug?  (I tried to report it via
ubuntu-bug, but it fails with it's own bug!)
