Is it possible to install a GRUB that can boot a ZFS root, but installing it from within Linux?
I was planning on getting a new unmanaged dedicated server, which however only comes with Linux preinstalled. The thing has a software RAID1, so the cunning plan was to break up the RAID1, install VirtualBox RDP and install OpenSolaris onto the freed drive. The only roadblock is GRUB at that point, which would still reside on the existing Linux disk. Once OpenSolaris has been booted, I can recreate the mirror and do a proper GRUB install. Getting a IP-KVM attached to change BIOS settings is kind of the cost I'd want to avoid here. Any ideas?
