I tried to dual boot Win7/Ubuntu, but the installer wouldn't recognize the free space on my hard drive, so I followed the advice of erasing RAID metadata with the command dmraid -E -r /dev/sda and that let me install Ubuntu, but when I rebooted my computer I was greeted with grub rescue.
Then, I tried to re-install Ubuntu, this time erasing the disk and completely disregarding Windows. I was hoping a fresh install would fix grub (as I don't care about Win), but I still get either grub rescue prompt, or (hd0) not found. The hard drive shows in fdisk and gparted.
I'm on an HP with triple core 2.6 GHz, 8 Gb ram.

Are you sure you installed GRUB on right hard drive?

There is only one hard drive in the system. All externals have been removed. The screen shots are from my live session of Puppy Linux (sdb).

I changed my BIOS setting from RAID/AHCI to Native IDE and it booted up directly. From what I read, there's supposed to be a performance penalty using IDE, but I haven't used it long enough to say for myself.
