Thanks a ot for your comment. I downloaded and installed Fedora 13. Works very 
good with ext4 partitions. However: it uses grub 0.97 with menu.lst !

Probably, they are using a patched version of grub1, which is reported to be 
able to handle ext4. 
Viewing this, I am wondering really, if it is worth to continue on the issue 
with grub2. Much more, as I crashed my box during this efforts and had to do a 
big lot of work until I repaired it. Could it be, that grub2 is not already 
mature enough, and distros are still waiting ?

Regards,
Edgar
