grub install questions (devfs problem)

[Alexey Chetroi <debian@twilight.telco.md>]

Hello

I have a little problem installing grun on my box, running
woody distribution. It is using devfs, so when I'm trying 
to install it on /dev/sda (which is actually symlink) it comlains:

lexa:/boot/grub# grub-install --recheck /dev/sda 
Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time.
/dev/sda does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.
lexa:/boot/grub# 

If instead of /dev/sda indicate actual device, then grub cannot
find my root partition (/dev/sda5):

lexa:/boot/grub# grub-install --recheck /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1
Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time.
/dev/sda5 does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.
lexa:/boot/grub# 

Is this solvable? I'd really like to test grub functionality.
