How do we get grub fixed? I reported this as a problem with the first
Red Hat release that included grub. It's still not fixed to my
knowledge. Florin just said it doesn't work one sme even newer boards
than mine.

I'd use Grub as the default. Inform the the user it may not work and to
use some option at install time if it doesn't. The a boot option to the
installer to use lilo instead. Kickstart/anaconda already support
picking lilo right?
Should be in the RELEASE-NOTES too.
