Title:
  Grub2 install failed in Ubuntu 12.04 install on RAID/LVM partitions

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi,
  During installation of Ubuntu 12.04, I can not finish the installation correctly, because the installation of grub goes wrong.
  Indeed, during the installation of grub I have a recurring error as follows:
  /usr/sbin/grub-setup: warn: Your embedding area is unusually small.  core.img 
  won't fit in it..
  /usr/sbin/grub-setup: error: embedding is not possible, but this is required 
  when the root device is on a RAID array or LVM volume.

  I'm running on 64bits plateforme, with LVM over RAID partitions. The same installation works perfectly with Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS.
  Here are more informations about my partitions : http://paste.ubuntu.com/1003855/
