Of course, but even though we should strive to support te widest module
configurations possible, GRUB is no panacea. Even when an initialized
GRUB could cope with a ZFS partition in a LVM+RAID on SATA drives not
supported by the BIOS, one should not really expect to be able to boot
directly off it - get a simpler boot scheme, man! extN, FAT or even SFS
are way simpler filesystems which should be used for boot partitions.
More complex filesystems such as ReiserFS or NTFS require _less_ complex
schemes such as no LVM+RAID in order to keep the total core size
manageable.
