On this newly installed system, not upgraded, I get this for my 
device.map file. I was thinking that (hd0) was still pointing to 
/dev/hda and therefore grub would enter incorrect references in its setup.

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

There might be something else other than what you tried. You seem to 
cover what I would have tried. I am not sure if /etc/modprobe.conf would 
have any influence or not.
