I have finished up enough of grub2 for it to be tested by other developers. 
Just updating to the subzero repo will not break the GRUB1
installation you have in your MBR. There are specific instructions on how to 
proceed with it, which are located in the upgrade.txt in
current. I will open testing for 1 week, and if there are no remaining issues, 
it will be merged after that time. Here are the instructions:

Add this to /etc/pacman-g2.conf, ensuring it is before current.

Include = /etc/pacman-g2/repos/subzero

Add this to /etc/pacman-g2/repos/subzero:

[subzero]
Server=http://ftp.frugalware.org/pub/other/people/ryuo/subzero/frugalware-@CARCH@

Replace @CARCH@ with your appropriate architecture.

Now:

pacman-g2 -Syu

And reboot.

Now, confirm that GRUB1 still boots. If so, proceed with the upgrade as 
described here, under the 'GRUB2 upgrade' section:

Thanks for testing.
