Package: grub
Version: 0.95+cvs20040624-8

Same for me with kernel-image-2.6.5-1-686-smp.

The DAC960 driver gets loaded and detects the raid
array: 
/dev/rd/c0d0
with the partitions:
/dev/rd/c0d0p1
/dev/rd/c0d0p2
/dev/rd/c0d0p3

but after that the boot fails with
pivot_root: No such file or directory.

The same kernel and initrd works with lilo.

It could be an initrd problem, though:

One guy has fixed that by adding the devices

$ ls -l /mnt/loop/dev
brw-rw----    1 root     disk      48,   0 Mar 28 14:11 c0d0
brw-rw----    1 root     disk      48,   1 Mar 28 14:10 c0d0p1
brw-rw----    1 root     disk      48,   2 Mar 28 14:10 c0d0p2
brw-rw----    1 root     disk      48,   3 Mar 28 14:10 c0d0p3
brw-rw----    1 root     disk      48,   4 Mar 28 14:10 c0d0p4
brw-rw----    1 root     disk      48,   5 Mar 28 14:10 c0d0p5
brw-rw----    1 root     disk      48,   6 Mar 28 14:10 c0d0p6
brw-rw----    1 root     disk      48,   7 Mar 28 14:10 c0d0p7

to his initrd.
