Sorry, I forgot to do that. Here is the result for 1.96+20080601-2:

# grub-probe --target=drive /boot
grub-probe: error: Cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/scsi/sdh5-dfb26000c0i2l0p1.  Check your device.map.

This is device.map (recently recreated because of two added SATA drives):
(hd0)	/dev/sda
(hd1)	/dev/sdb
(hd2)	/dev/sdc
(hd3)	/dev/sdd

# mount -l | grep boot
