HP Proliant raid - ubuntu intrepid won't boot after install

I've had a problem with HP Proliant SAS raid drives and ubuntu intrepid. The OS installs fine, but won't boot after installation. HP says something about attempting to boot from C: drive. I love how HP assumes I have a C: drive. It seems plenty of people are having the same problem in this thread. The solution is to boot into rescue mode using the installation media and do:
grub-install /dev/cciss/c0d0

or just use the re-install grub rescue menu option with
/dev/cciss/c0d0
