Hi,

We just tried to do the same thing and just managed to somehow mess up 
the BIOS data (NIC refused to work; BIOS reset jumper on mainboard was 
necessary to get it working again)

Additionally, grub2 seems to miss a the modulenounzip functionality. 
You're better off using grub legacy

Regards,
Manuel
