Hi all, 

	Will these packages on a Debian squeeze server support grub booting from an ext4 file system with the extra features turned on ( e.g extents)?  

# dpkg -la|grep grub
ii  grub                                  0.97-64                                  GRand Unified Bootloader (dummy package)
ii  grub-common                           1.98+20100804-14+squeeze2                GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (common files)
ii  grub-pc        

I ask because I remounted /boot as ext4 ( was ext3 ) and turned on extents. 

many thanks, Sophie
