It's your call, so you decide. ;) However, here Extlinux has no problemos with the 'grubby', at all[1]. For some time I use Extlinux on Fedora 18, also without problemos. I haven't even mentioned the Rawhide. So. And if I think about it twice, "kernel" is pretty good global keyword for the kernel's entries, and thus to linux kernel. But everything is prone to change. =) poma [1] 'f19-extlinux-initrd-OK.txt'(attach)
