There was a bug that GRUB Legacy wasn't included on the karmic DVD but
that should have been fixed already. So make sure you use a fresh image
file.

That's why grub-installer uses still GRUB Legacy in case /boot is on a
dmraid.
GRUB Legacy is complete dead for us, so if you want to have help for
that you have to ask at some Ubuntu place or somewhere else.
With GRUB 2 you could try the lucid (10.04) package out.
At least grub-probe should work there.
But I never tested if grub-setup works and so not if it actually boots
correctly from a dmraid.
