That definitely isn't solving mine.

The only thing that has worked for me is to boot into an older OS (or chroot into it) where I had an older version of grub2 (grub-pc) installed.
That version recognizes my mdadm raid devices and lvm2 devices just fine, and will actually work.

The only way I can get the alternate CD to install on my computer is to
have the debconf installer use LILO instead of grub or grub2.

I'm not sure if it's something to do with the newer kernels, or the
newer grub-common / grub-pc / grub2 builds, but I have tried several
versions and the only one that doesn't segfault when grub-probe runs
(with -t abstraction flag set) is the one that is in the official jaunty
repo's.

Guess I'm stuck with LILO till we figure this out. I just hope the grub2
team is aware that there's still an issue with grub2 and lvm2/raid.
