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 ;-(
Ubuntu 9.10 as well as Debian Unstable (Sid) use it by default. It's in Debian Stable (Lenny) also optionally available. There are even backports of grub2 from backports.org available for Debian Oldstable (Etch).
Never had problems with them on i386 or amd64. I once already installed grub2 from backports.org on an Etch box with 3 TB RAID while to Debian installer was still running. :-)
I though have severe problems with grub2 onn Sparc. Currently sitting in front of my UltraSparc, testing the newest version if they fixed them this time. :-)
HTH, Axel
