We don't say that GRUB supports foobar, when GRUB can just chainload the
boot loader of foobar. We say that GRUB supports foobar, when GRUB can
load foobar directly (i.e. loading the OS image and boot it). As the
mechanism of chainloading is just loading another boot loader, this
doesn't mean that the OS is supported by GRUB in our sense.
