Why don't you just have ONE boot partition?
Surely that is the norm if one is running different systems.
I seem to recall someone saying that updating the kernel on one OS could
mess around with the other files in /boot, knobbling another OS, when
they all had their kernels in /boot.
It doesn't.
Anaconda (both in RHEL and Fedora) does clubber the existing grub.conf
during the installation.
But if you keep a copy of the previous grub.conf and merge with the
newly installed on, it should work just fine.
Updates only add/remove exact kernel versions and files (and the default
option). They do not modify other entries.

With Fedora changing every 6 months, it is best to not allow
anaconda to botch up your grub. And you CAN tell it not to. Then later I
can set up grub as I want it :-)
