It seems some old version of GRUB on a old version of FreeBSD has worked: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hackers/2004-May/006944.html

I don't mind try GRUB 1.96. The problem is I have never used GRUB2 and I have no idea how to configure it. Is there a good notes/documentation on how to use GRUB2? What I need basically is where to put files (eg. stage1, stage2 and *_stage1_5 of GRUB1 in /boot/grub/.) and a sample configuration file. Anyway meanwhile I'll try to find some documentation.
