Follow-up Comment #21:

Ok so this report should just be >= 2.02
thanks for clarifying :)

>It is simple to support both <2.02 and >=2.02 protocols in grub

Well I didn't bother to look at the details (e.g. grub linux loader code ;)
)
I just think that it's not bad to get completely rid of old stuff and kernels
before 2.4.0 are really old
kernel.org says latest 2.2.26 is from 2004-02-25
But if it seems that it's not complicated then why not just keeping the old
support.
