grub in EL6 can boot of ext4, and that's grub-0.97-68.el6.x86_64.
Grub (version 1) from CentOS 6 has apparently been patched to be able to handle ext4. There's no doubt that Grub 1 by itself can't boot an ext4 file system.
Patched or not, Grub 1 has been successfully booting my F14 machine from an ext4 partition for a full year now, since I first installed F14.
Ability to boot from ext4 is certainly *not* the reason for moving to Grub 2, one way or the other.
HTH, :-) Marko
