From looking at the GRUB 1.96 sources, I get the impression that this command line should be:

$ sudo grub-install /dev/mapper/Ubuntu-hardy64

in order for grub-probe to see the abstraction as GRUB_DEV_ABSTRACTION_LVM.

I could be majorly wrong, and this may have changed between 1.96 and the version that Cameron is using, but... I'm just trying to figure out how GRUB works. :^)
