Is your /boot/grub/device.map file correctly mapping BIOS drives to
device names?  If not grub-install may give you an error like that.

$ cat /boot/grub/device.map
# this device map was generated by anaconda
(fd0)     /dev/fd0
(hd0)     /dev/hde

On my older A7V (KT133?) board I have to select boot SCSI from the menu
to boot to the ATA133 ports.  When I do that the /dev/hde disk becomes
what GRUB should see as hd0.
