Sometimes we have ~4T storage and I want to boot from this
The new grub should be able to handle this but I haven't seen a distribution which use it ;-(
Grub2 is deployed for example with new Ubuntu installations by default and Debian Lenny + Squeeze provide Grub2 as well. The next stable release of Grml (upcoming in those days) provides Grub2 as well.
Maybe there is another bootloader for linux which is able to boot from such a disc?
Grub 1.97 (which counts as Grub2) was released a few days ago and provides improved GPT support:
