I tried grub2 out about a year or so ago. It had no way to boot OS X, and it failed to boot Linux as well (just froze up, I can't remember the details). This was on a G4 Mac Mini. Things may well have improved for the better since then--I just went back to yaboot since I was more interested in having a working system than playing with bootloaders. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
