Thanks for your quick reply. Triaged to Confirmed. One work around is
to create a GRUB boot floppy. Instead of using the MBR to load the 1st
Stage, it uses the floppy. The menu.lst file is stored on the Linux
partition and boots normally. I'm not aware of a way to boot GRUB
without an MBR change (which could affect Vista) but you can boot off of
a USB stick, floppy or CD ROM that provides the 1st stage of GRUB to
give the the selection menu.
