Title:
  12.10 amd64 grub won't install on fakeraid on asus m3a78 pro

Status in “grub-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  " same old story ": unity tries to install on sda instead of where it
  was supposed to.

  on grub-install it says it does not have success installing on sda and
  proposes to try another partition to install to but choosing the right
  device mapper does fail again.

  On ubuntu 11.04 no problem so far, it was working out of the box, in
  the last 3 releases ( ubuntu 11.10, 12.04, 12.10 ) there's no way to
  install the bootloader; i will try to launch ubiquity with the option
  to NOT install the bootloader and then install it from scratch...
  boring ... :-)
